Composite materials, (fiber reinforced composites—FRC), allow us to offer an additional choice of poles to our customers. We are committed to producing fiberglass poles that meet the strictest industry standards for quality and testing. Production facilities are strategically located throughout the U.S. and offer quality, durable FRC poles at competitive prices.
Each pole is wound with a computer-controlled system that precisely regulates the fiber placement to enhance performance. In addition, careful attention to resin dispensing allows us to produce poles with high fiber ratios resulting in superior strength-to-weight characteristics. An extra step in the production process assures that the poles will not 'bloom.' The resulting FRC pole is one that meets your requirements for exact specifications, durability, strength and ease of installation.
