The cover story of the Q1 2026 issue of Precast Today, published by the National Precast Concrete Association, features a Permatile project: the emergency replacement of a washed-out section of Route 321 in Butler, Tennessee, after Hurricane Helene.

We’re proud to share that John V. Rainero, P.E., our Vice President of Construction and Engineering, has been named Chairman of the Board of the American Concrete Pipe Association (ACPA) for 2026-27.

Permatile Concrete Products was well represented at The Precast Show 2026, held February 4-6 at the Kansas City Convention Center. The show is the premier North American trade event for the manufactured concrete industry, produced by the National Precast Concrete Association (NPCA) in partnership with PCI and CMHA.

Every construction project has challenges. One key to success is to control what you can. For engineers, choosing precast concrete is a smart way to ensure a precision product. It moves the construction of concrete components from an unpredictable job site into a controlled facility.

We’re proud to share that Mickey Arnold, Permatile’s Quality Control Manager and Safety Director, was recently featured in the National Precast Concrete Association’s (NPCA) Precast Today magazine.

Dr. Yvan Beliveau – Professor of Building Construction, College of Architecture & Urban Studies at the Myers Lawson School of construction at Virginia Tech brings his building construction class of students to tour Permatile Concrete each Fall to see how precast concrete products are manufactured and learn a little about different products and their importance in today’s infrastructure industry.
