May 11, 2010 (FinancialWire) — Axion International Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB: AXIH ) said it has completed the first of two railroad bridges, constructed from 100% recycled plastic, at Fort Eustis, Virginia. According to Axion, the bridges utilize the firm’s patented Recycled Structural Composite, a thermoplastic solution consisting of nearly 100% recycled post-consumer and industrial plastic.

The new short span bridges extend around 40 and 80 feet, respectively. Both bridges are designed to deliver a high-load rating of 130 tons, which is necessary in order to transport locomotives and freight.

The bridges were designed by Parsons Brinckerhoff, a firm engaged in developing and operating infrastructure in the Americas, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia and Australia-Pacific regions.

New Jersey-based Axion International is a green technology company offering alternative infrastructure products and structural solutions.
