Railmark launches two new green product lines

To make the railroad industry a little more green and efficient, Railmark Holdings, Inc. launched its RAILheat products, which utilize a new Far Infrared (FIR) technology. The FIR is safer for the environment and is highly energy efficient. The RAILheat products are designed to prevent freezing in railroad equipment and operations. Aside from this, Railmark’s subsidiary, Railmark Track Works, Inc. is now the exclusive supplier of a new line of “premium quality” bio-based, biodegradable rail curve and switch lubricants which the company claims far exceed all other similar products on the market. Bearing the Ultralube brand, the railroad lubricants are made from renewable U.S.-grown crop based oils. B. Allen Brown, Railmark president and CEO, said, “We are excited to launch these ECO-SAFE products to the railroad industry that will improve operations and reduce our carbon footprint. The promotion of these products coincides with our slogan and commitment to delivering A New Train of Thought….. These products bring immediate solutions to the railroad industry in areas needing of change. Railmark continues to invest in research and development and looks forward to additional Eco-Safe product launches continuing through this year.” (May 16, 2012)
