Since 1920 Gross & Janes Co. has been the leader in Supplying the railroad industry with quality crossties, gum panels and switchties.

Gross & Janes has introduced a new non-pressurized borate pre-treatment process to the railroad crosstie industry. Borate has been used as a more environmentally friendly offset to oil-based creosote for wood tie preservative in recent years. This new process optimizes this environmental impact while eliminating the cost of pressurized application of borate at the time of creosote application. Approximately 18 percent of the 22 million railroad ties made in North America last year were treated with borate.
