and producing architectural, structural and environmental concrete
products that solve specific design problems and meet the individ-

become the largest precast, prestressed concrete manufacturer in
Eastern Canada. Our primary market covers Atlantic Canada, the
Eastern seaboard of the United States, and Bermuda.
The flexibility of our plants, the creativity of our designers and the

precast concrete solutions. Strescon manufactures a wide range of
both architectural and structural precast/prestressed concrete
products, including: bridge girders, wall panels, complete parking
garages, hollowcore planking, piling and deck slabs. Strescon also
manufactures concrete products for engineered drainage systems,
such as pipe, manholes and catchbasins.

Infrastructure Infrastructure products workquietly in the background...They’re the treatment plantsthat filter your wastewater; thebridges that support your vehi-cles; and the box culverts thatprotect your waterways.
Infrastructure is a huge invest-ment, so it’s important tochoose materials like precastconcrete that will last andrequire less costly maintenance.
Transportation:Bridge & Overpass Structures use standard pre-stressed concrete girders forspans of 30-140 feet. Custom &standard channel and box girdersections are also available.
Marine Structures such aswharves and cribs use precastprestressed deck slabs, pilingand beams. Precast sheet pilingis used in many areas to act asa breakwater or as an earthretaining wall.
Environmental:Wastewater Treatment PlantsStrescon wastewater treatmentplants incorporate proven, reli-able treatment processes and thelatest technology available.Plants are complete package sys-tems, custom designed for anyapplication - municipal, com-
mercial and residential. Theyprovide a long life of depend-able service and quality. Pipe & Stormwater TreatmentConcrete is not only an environ-mentally friendly product, but itsdurability means that that onceinstalled, the area doesn’t have tobe disturbed again for many years.
Strescon’s modern pipe plant uti-lizes state-of-the-art technology toquickly manufacture high-qualitypipe up to 144” (3.6m) diameter.
Strescon also manufactures Storm-ceptor® oil and sediment separa-tors; underground detention sys-tems; and large diameter pumpingstations.
TanksPrecast concrete tanks save timeand money. Virtually any storagestructure can be built using pre-cast concrete. Precast tanks canstore or treat anything frompotable water to hazardous wasteto solid storage bins.
