Testimonials

"The territory in which the TieTek ties are located carries predominantly 286,000 lb. coal cars. To date, these ties have approximately 1,500 MGT (MGT=million gross tons) accumulated. The composite tie shows little if any indication of plate cutting into the tie; also there is no indication of any backing out of either the cut spike or lag screw. Union Pacific Railroad continues to look to TieTek for a good quality composite tie product."

Ed Kohake, Senior Manager Methods & Research, Union Pacific Railroad

"TieTek is a model of 21st century corporate responsibility and innovation -- recycling plastic, rubber and other disposed products into 100% recyclable crossties that deliver financial and performance benefits for the railroads."

Bruce Babbitt, former US Secretary of the Interior

"NATK is delivering a composite crosstie that has the capacity to make a significant positive impact on the railroad industry and on our environment. I am enthusiastic about the Company's potential and look forward to influencing its growth in my role as a director of NATK."

John Corcia, former CEO of Stablex Canada, Inc.

"TieTek continues to show that composite crossties can be a viable business delivering quality products that demonstrate compelling value for their customers."

Donald Holfeld, Director of Field Engineering, ZETA-TECH Associates, Inc.

"We have had very good experience with projects in steel mills, automobile plants, and operating railroads. The TieTek™ ties have maintained gage, shown no plate wear and have held spikes and screws better than our experience with pressure treated hardwood ties. The ties have performed very well in both tangent and curved track."
