Applications

IntegriCo Composites' ties provide benefits for all major rail tie applications from the extreme loading conditions of a class I heavy axle load applications to the caustic environment of an industrial chemical processing plant. Key benefits are listed below.

Class I
- Excellent spike retention
- High compressive strength
- Longer life cycle in harsh climates
- Immune to insect infestation
- Fungus and mildew resistant
- High electrical impedance
- Resists rail plate cutting
- Can be installed with existing equipment alongside wood ties

Commuter
- Vibration and noise attenuation
- Reduced maintenance benefits especially in critical applications such as tunnels and elevated track
- High electrical impedance

Industrial
- Resists damage from caustic and corrosive environments
- Less interruption to operations for maintenance
- Excellent gauge retention across the life of the tie
