Components

Beams, channels, angles, tubes and plate.

Did you ever wonder how a fish can swim upstream? They cant and in order to preserve the species, they need help. In Holyoke, Mass, like many other areas in new England and throughout the world, Fish Passages are designed and built.

These help the environment to naturally allow the fish to reach an area without stress or unnatural means. The Cianbro Company of Maine has been a large part of designing and building these fish passages. They utilize over 450 tons of galvanized steel.

Not only for the longevity of the corrosion protection in the water, but for the sustainability for the environment, with the coating having no ill effects on the fish. The Galvanizer on record has been a large part of creating and supplying this work over the past decade. Once it is established that there is a waterway in need, delivery and clean fish friendly galvanized steel needs to arrive on time, in the right order, with no touch up paint, and packaged ready to install.

A challenging but very rewarding project to be part of. Hadley Falls Fish Passage Hadley Falls Fish Passage Hadley Falls Fish Passage Hadley Falls Fish Passage Hadley Falls Fish Passage Hadley Falls Fish Passage

Protecting America's Infrastructure One Dip at a Time

Paper Airplane

This free standing, tall, abstract piece of art resembles paper airplanes, and is positioned at a hangar in Houston, TX. It is made of bent plates, and hot-dip galvanized with powder coating.

McDonald's Solar Canopy

There was only one logical option for protecting the steel on this project: hot-dip galvanizing. Lake effect snow and road salts are only a few of the things the McDonalds Solar Canopy will be exposed to over the years.

Castle Island

Located on the shore of Boston Harbor, Castle Island is a 22-acre recreation site and location of Fort Independence. Because of its rich history and designation on the National Register of Historic Places, the area is a popular tourist destination.
