HARRIMAN, TENNESSEE, OCTOBER 16, 2005… C.R. Barger & Sons, Inc. has achieved certification of their manufacturing facility by the National Precast Concrete Association (NPCA).

The NPCA Plant Certification Program is a challenging test of a plant’s ability to produce quality precast concrete products. Administered by Wiss, Janney, Elstner, Associates, Inc., a world-renown engineering and materials science firm, the inspection is a comprehensive look at all aspects of precast concrete production. Precast plants that become certified must meet high standards in all areas of production, safety and information management.
