Polyurethane vibration isolation materials for rail, construction, and industrial equipment
Getzner manufactures proprietary polyurethane compounds (Sylomer, Sylodyn, Sylodamp, Isotop, Sylocraft, Relomer) that dampen vibrations in railways, buildings, and machinery. The company is actively expanding internationally—hiring across Austria, Germany, Turkey, UK, and Brazil—while grappling with production planning digitalization and delivery reliability. The heavy sales hiring (11 of 24 open roles) paired with logistics and manufacturing gaps suggests a supply-chain scaling challenge tied to geographic expansion.
