Following the successful start-up phase, IoRW has now entered a dynamic new phase establishing itself as an independent body to serve the wide range of individuals and organisations that have a keen interest in rail welding. On 31 October 2004, IoRW changed from an individual membership to a corporate membership based organisation. Staff (or nominees) of member companies will have access to the benefits of IoRW as before. These continue to be:
- A dedicated, regular newsletter and a web site.
- Twice-yearly technical seminars.
- Independent harmonisation of training and competencies.
- A technical enquiry service for IoRW members through a network of experts.
- Actively contributing to the continuing reduction in rail weld failures and weld rejects through enhanced quality systems and knowledge transfer.
- Automatic access to the benefits of The Welding & Joining Society, which include Connect magazine, Welding and Cutting, JoinIT, an e-mail newsletter, the Weldasearch information service and free access to TWI's library.
- Business Briefings covering specific hot topics that affect the rail industry.
IoRW is open to corporate membership on a world-wide basis.
