Speed Fab-Crete is one of only two Texas-based
companies to be honored out of nearly 400 NPCA-certified plants across the U.S.
This achievement ranks Speed Fab-Crete in the top 7 percent of all
NPCA-certified plants.
The NPCA established its national Plant
Certification Program in 1987 to ensure a consistent industry benchmark and a
high degree of excellence among precast operations. Since 1951, Speed Fab-Crete
has specialized in a structurally loadbearing, precast, high-strength concrete
wall panel building system. Architectural panel applications and various veneer
finishes, including a precast, thin brick system, as well as components/systems
for FEMA P-361 safe rooms and ICC 500 storm shelters, are among the numerous
options produced at the company?s 15-acre manufacturing plant, located at 1150
East Kennedale Parkway in south Fort Worth
“The NPCA?s quality assurance committee is
very thorough in their annual plant audits, and the fact that we rank amongst
the top 25 of all NPCA-certified plants in the U.S. is a huge honor and
testimony to the quality of the precast concrete products manufactured here at
Speed Fab-Crete,? said Carl Hall, CEO and director of plant operations at Speed
Fab-Crete.
