TAMPA BAY, FL / ACCESSWIRE / June 28, 2023 / Atlantic Power & Infrastructure Corp's (OTC PINK:AWSL) wholly owned subsidiary, K.B. Industries Inc., has successfully installed an additional section of their innovative technology, Flexi®-Pave, at the Hillsborough County Faulkenburg Jail in Tampa, Florida. This installation aims to address drainage issues around the administration buildings, utilizing scrap car and truck tires as a sustainable solution.
The first phase of the project, completed in September 2022, encompassed a total area of 4,680 square feet. Following its success, K.B. Industries received an order for an additional 6,620 square feet of Flexi®-Pave. The decision to expand the installation was driven by the need to improve drainage in tight areas surrounding the administration buildings, which were requiring excessive maintenance. K.B. Industries' proprietary Flexi®-Pave offers unparalleled porosity, enabling effective stormwater management by retaining more runoff on-site and reducing unnecessary strain on the municipal sewer system.
Mr. Kevin Bagnall, Chairman and CEO of Atlantic Power & Infrastructure Corp, expressed his pride in the growing demand for Flexi®-Pave installations. He stated, "It is truly gratifying when clients who have previously utilized Flexi®-Pave reach out to order more installations. It serves as a testament to the effectiveness of our technology and our reputation in the industry.
