Polycorp's Two New Rail Products appear in Rubber World Magazine

5/26/2022

Rubber World recently published an article about Polycorp's two new products, Shallow Flangeway Railseal and Tuned Mass Dampers ("TMD's").  Polycorp designs are customized and optimized to deliver performance and exceed specifications.

Shallow Flangeway "Safety" Railseal

Polycorp's Shallow Flangeway "Safety" Railseal is a proven patented solution to prevent numerous cycling and wheelchair deaths at rail crossings, by optimizing the flangeway gap to reduce the chance of wheels becoming wedged in the flangeway, while still allowing trains to cross pedestrian grades safely.

Installed at Guelph Junction Railway in Ontario, Canada and Seminole Gulf Railway network, Florida, USA. 

 

Tuned Mass Damper ("TMD")

Open ballast track that is near residential areas can benefit from significant noise reduction without the need to dig up the tracks, add unsightly and costly sound walls, or add other invasive methods to control noise.  Polycorp TMD's can also be easily added or removed without damaging the existing rail.

Polycorp TMD's can easily be installed in seconds, during non-revenue service hours to an existing section of track using Polycorp's patented EP-Lock TMD Clip.

Polycorp Ltd. case named one of the winners by EFMD, The European Foundation for Management Development, for a business case study on Polycorp, prepared by Dr. Peggy Cunningham, Professor and former Dean, Faculty of Management, Dalhousie University.

"I was delighted to learn that my case, 'Polycorp: A Pricing and Investment Dilemma', was selected as the Hidden Champions winner," remarked Dr. Peggy Cunningham, Dalhousie University.

The Polycorp case study, currently taught at Canadian and US universities, was a category winner from over 650 cases submitted and won in the "Hidden Champions" category.

"Medium-sized companies that hold a leading international market position are not well known to the general public despite their success, but they should be - because executives can learn a lot from the successful concepts of Hidden Champions."

"We were thrilled to hear that the Polycorp case was selected as a category winner and congratulate Dr. Cunningham on the achievement," said Peter Snucins, CEO Polycorp.

Polycorp Ltd. Celebrates 25 Years

5/31/2021

Polycorp Ltd. is a privately owned, Canadian company that was established in 1996, when its founder, owner, and CEO, Peter Snucins, purchased the intellectual property and assets of B.F. Goodrich Engineering Products Canada, which had been located in downtown Kitchener, Ontario since 1922.  Mr. Snucins dismantled the Kitchener plant, moved select assets and a few personnel to a state of the art manufacturing facility that he established in nearby Elora, Ontario.

In 2002, Polycorp purchased the Polymerics line of protective linings in Detroit Michigan, subsequently moving and integrating it with the Elora operation, reuniting two former B.F. Goodrich operations.  This gave Polycorp the largest catalogue of rubber protective linings and associated formulations in North America, together with over 700 combined years of rubber experience.

From only a handful of employees in 1996, Polycorp has grown to over 220 employees and extensive sales agent network serving customers worldwide, exporting to over 50 countries.  Heavy emphasis on intellectual property has resulted in 41 patents and 15 patents pending.

Polycorp has built a reputation as a global market leader in three distinct areas: Mining; Protective Linings; and Rail.  The commonality of these products is the use of polymer based materials, primarily rubber, recently polyurethane, for abrasion, impact, noise, contamination and/or corrosion protection.

Polycorp held a 25th Anniversary Logo Competition among its employees and their families, with the winner to be announced in early June.
