A Brief History
When the business was born under the name of WH Hilton back in 1908, the world of filing
was new and exciting. In Rochdale, near Manchester, a young Frank Wilson used the expertise
of the local spindle manufacturers to make components for binders, which he assembled at
home. Demand was great for his products and the business grew, with new products being
continuously developed.
As larger filing systems became more commonplace, the need for improved filing practices
increased. And it is this focus on designing efficient filing systems that has been the foundation
of Railex’s work over the last century. A number of the products, including the Railex Polifile,
Easifile and 221 lateral suspension pocket became standards throughout the offices of the UK.
In addition, Railex worked with its customers to design literally millions of customised files that
have met specific needs across thousands of organisations.
This dedication to detail, coupled with a culture of high quality and exceptional
customer service opened the door to overseas markets. The launch of large
format files for storing print plates and other graphic arts based media led to
the development of a strong German market. At the same time in Norway,
Railex’s medical record folders became a great success in the hospital market.
During the last century, as the world changed, Railex changed while maintaining
the principles behind our success. So as we look forward, we will continue to
develop superior products, manufactured to a high quality, whilst at the same Howard Wilson
time providing the outstanding service that our customers expect. Group Chairman

Specification Service
Many customers know what they are trying to achieve with their filing system
but need advice on the best methods and products. This is the specialism
of Railex, in that we have the expertise in records management to ask the
right questions and then the experience to guide the customer through the
specification process. Where a standard product is not appropriate we can
either customize an existing design, or create a new design which is perfect
for the situation.
Materials
Material choice is a crucial element of the design. Along with the grade,
colour and properties of the board, consideration must be given to the future
consistency of supply. Railex have a long-term strategy of using reputable
paper mills and holding ranges of boards in stock, often in different weights
and colours. In addition alternative materials such as fibreboard and
polypropylene are held to give the widest choice.
The same is true of file fittings, where we have a myriad of different fittings
in stock to suit any situation.
Where the material or fitting required is not available from stock, our
experienced Purchasing department has an international network of
dependable suppliers on which to draw.

Configurations and Sizes
Our Production department has a range of guillotines and die-cutting machines
to make the most complex shapes you can imagine. We have both automatic
and manual machines, giving short-run capabilities and single piece sizes up
to 79cm x 100cm.
Print
The most popular customisation is bespoke print. We have full graphic design
and plate-making facilities on site for our flexo-graphic print presses. This
means that we can make preproduction samples that allow the customer to
approve the final print before manufacture. This removes the risk of error
as the approved artwork is sent directly to the plate making facility. In most
cases our customers require black print, however we can facilitate 4-colour
work and specialist effects such as embossing through our supply base.
Automatic and Manual Pocket Gluing
Our gluing department boasts four fast automatic pocket gluing machines,
which between them offer a range of pocket types and sizes secured with either
hot-melt or cold glue. Where complex shapes or short runs are required, we
have a long-established manual gluing system that is experienced in gluing
cloth and large format sizes.
Hi-frequency Polypropylene Welding
Hemming suspension bars into polypropylene is a particular challenge and for
that we have the latest in ultra-sonic welding equipment. It is more attractive
than traditional riveting and wire-stitching, but still provides a strong physical
bond.
Tabbed Dividers
We have short and long run capability on dividers, both printed and unprinted,
in a range of sizes up to A3 and beyond.
Features and Fittings
As you would expect we have a vast range of print finishing equipment
including eyeletting machines, tab punches, presses, wire stitching machines,
rotary and automatic creasing machines, and punches. This gives us the
flexibility to meet the most demanding specifications.

ease. All pockets utilise the Click-Tab for indexing, giving a fully encapsulated tab system that can be
reused over and over again

31. Large Format Filing &
Storage
The filing and retrieval of large format media is
a particular problem for the Graphic Arts Industry.
For example, storing artwork in drawers can be
problematic, as the prints are difficult to retrieve and
can be damaged. Railex’s Large Format systems
suspend the papers or plates vertically inside an
outer file, so making storage and retrieval much
more efficient.
The system consists of two parts, firstly the storage
- usually a steel rack containing hanging rails - and
secondly the files that hold the media. The files are
available in four different specifications to protect
many types of media, each with their own features
and benefits.
REF: 7.0.0/1
32. QuickRack
The QuickRack shelving system is made from strong steel extrusion and can be assembled quickly
on site without the need for additional fastenings. The racks are available in a range of heights and
depths to deal with the various sizes of media that need to be stored. In all cases the racks are supplied
complete with the hanging rails necessary to hold the files.

33. Trolleys
When storing media for print machinery, such as print plates for example, it is more efficient to store
the live work near to where they are needed. Mobile Trolleys and Wall Mounted Rails provide a very
effective solution in achieving this. There are two types of trolley available.
MiniRack is a scaled down version of the QuickRack, with heavy duty castors fitted for mobility. It has
a melamine work-surface built into the top to allow the file to be opened quickly.
RollaTrolley is constructed from box section steel and includes a clear Perspex work-surface built into
the top.
In addition, Wall Mounted Rails which can be secured to a nearby wall and provide a very cost effective
way of presenting the work to the machine.
