When it comes to industrial and commercial facilities, safety is not an afterthought—it’s a necessity. Recently, our team completed the installation of 115 linear feet of DOT-compliant highway rail at the Utz Potato Chip facility in Shelby, North Carolina, reinforcing the site’s infrastructure and providing a long-term safety solution.
This project highlights our commitment to precision, compliance, and protection, ensuring that both people and property are safeguarded.
Why DOT Highway Rail Matters
Highway rail systems are more than just metal barriers. They serve as critical infrastructure designed to:
Protect vehicles and equipment from hazardous zones.
Reinforce safety for employees, visitors, and the general public.
Meet regulatory compliance with state and federal transportation standards.
By partnering with businesses like Utz, we’re helping ensure that industrial operations are backed by the same level of safety expected on public highways.
Meeting North Carolina DOT Standards
Every rail we install is built and positioned to align with North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) standards. This guarantees:
Durability against high-impact scenarios.
Precision alignment to prevent failures and gaps.
Long-term compliance that keeps facilities inspection-ready.
Our Shelby, NC project reflects not just the ability to deliver on time, but also the expertise required to meet stringent industry and government guidelines.
