Part of the Global Nibe Group

In January 2021 GrayBar was acquired by Backer Heatrod Ltd and became part of the NIBE Group, as part of NIBE Rail, working closely with the team at Denmark based SAN Electro Heat. Together SAN Electro and GrayBar offer a complete portfolio of track heating products.

This strategic partnership strengthens GrayBar’s ability to deliver high-performance, energy-efficient solutions for the rail industry. By combining UK-based engineering and customer support with SAN Electro Heat’s European manufacturing expertise, we offer a fully integrated range of self-regulating points heating systems, control cubicles, and trackside accessories.

As part of the NIBE Group, GrayBar benefits from global R&D, advanced production capabilities, and shared technical innovation—while continuing to meet the specific standards and requirements of UK rail infrastructure. This collaboration ensures our products remain reliable, compliant, and future-ready for modern rail networks.
