Questions About Our
Crossing Systems

Rosehill Rail is a division of Rosehill Group, based in Sowerby Bridge, West Yorkshire. Founded in 1991, we manufacture five distinct crossing systems from 100% recycled rubber for rail networks in over 30 countries. We are ISO 9001:2015 certified and Network Rail Approved.

All our products are manufactured from 100% recycled SBR tyre rubber bound with polyurethane binder using our proprietary cold cure bonding process. Developed in 1991, this process reduced curing time to just 1.5 hours compared to traditional vulcanisation methods.

Yes. Our products are made from 100% recycled tyre rubber, saving 614kg CO2e per cubic metre compared to concrete alternatives. The manufacturing process produces no chemical leaching and no harmful vapours, and our products operate within a circular economy model.

We hold ISO 9001:2015 certification with annual NQA audits and are Network Rail Approved. Every panel is marked with its crossing grade, rail type, sleeper type, fastener type, and year of manufacture, with full digital traceability from production through to delivery.

It depends on your application:

• StrandLock — For complex geometries, high crossing angles, and mainline infrastructure
• LINK — For high-speed rail where wave effects need to be managed
• Baseplate — For average-sized crossings requiring fast installation with no special tools
• Interlocking RRAP — For Road Rail Access Points with irregular sleeper spacing
• TITAN — For extreme-duty environments including mining, construction, and heavy industrial

Our systems cover road crossings, pedestrian crossings, Road Rail Access Points (RRAPs), tramways, and agricultural crossings. We also supply surface-level metro and light rail applications.

Yes. No two crossings are identical. Every system is manufactured to your specific track gauge, sleeper spacing, rail profile, and crossing angle — purpose-built from the start, not adapted from off-the-shelf products.

StrandLock is a post-tensioned level crossing system with steel strand reinforcement. Steel strands are tensioned beneath the panels, holding them in compression to prevent thermal expansion and contraction gapping. Panels connect via a 50mm rubber key block for precise alignment.

The LINK system is designed specifically for high-speed rail crossings. Its moulded rubber tongue and groove connections absorb wave effects caused by high-speed trains, linking panels into a single load-distributing matrix that prevents panel separation under dynamic loading.

Anti-Trespass Panels are conical stud deterrent panels that reduce unauthorised track access by up to 78%. They are Network Rail Approved in three variations — double flange, single flange, and flangeless — covering four-foot gauge track, outside four-foot applications, and platform ends. Made from 100% recycled rubber.

Walkway Panels have a 40+ year design life. They feature a PSV 45 rated slip-resistant surface, are made from 100% recycled rubber, and won't rot like timber, crack like concrete, or corrode like steel. They are fully reusable and relocatable.

The Baseplate and Interlocking RRAP systems require no special tools for installation. The StrandLock system uses a standard hydraulic jack for post-tensioning the steel strands.

Yes. Walkway Panels install in rain, frost, or heat with no curing time and no weather delays. They require only minimal ground preparation and can be unbolted, relocated, and reinstalled at a new site.

Yes. We offer free training courses at our Sowerby Bridge facility.
