Axion International Holdings Inc, a leader in recycled plastic and plastic composite technologies used to produce Ecotrax rail ties and Struxure building products, announced the company's first purchase order from one of the world's largest mining companies. The “sleepers” (rail ties) are the mining company's first order of Axion's longer lasting recycled Eecotrax products consisting of long-length ties measuring up to 16.5 ft and were the result of Axion's regional distribution agreement signed in 2011.
This order of Eecotrax rail ties, which is being shipped to one of the mining company's Australian locations, were selected primarily due to challenges in finding long-length hard wood rail ties to satisfy both above and underground rail tracks supporting heavier axle loads.Axion International Holdings Inc, a leader in recycled plastic and plastic composite technologies used to produce Ecotrax rail ties and Struxure building products, announced the company's first #
“The economics behind the availability of hard-woods, especially in longer lengths, varies around the world, and so we at Axion want to uncover those opportunities and offer a consistent product at a competitive price worldwide,” commented Cory Burdick, Axion's Eecotrax Sales Manager.
“This continued growth among both freight and metro rail line operators, worldwide, is testament to the growing need for long-lasting composite rail ties, and Axion's recycled formulas and steady record of dependability and quality are attracting growing acceptance. Axion's Eecotrax rail ties/sleepers are now either in operation or in testing for rail lines on every continent that supports rail traffic. We're extremely proud of the growth we've achieved and will continue to strive for even greater and broader acceptance.”
Axion's Eecotrax rail ties are engineered using the Company's patented 100% recycled formula. Eecotrax rail ties have helped divert millions of pounds of plastic bottles and waste into useful products that will last decades. Because Eecotrax rail ties are extremely strong, durable and low maintenance they are an excellent, cost-effective alternative to traditional materials.
