America’s infrastructure was built during a golden era and economic boom in the wake of WWII. Now, more than seven decades later, that infrastructure is approaching the end of its service life. In fact, this year’s [Infrastructure Report Card](https://infrastructurereportcard.org/) from ASCE gave the U.S. a C-, and the effects will continue to be felt. The impacts are already staggering – every two minutes, there’s a water main break, and the country loses 9,000 swimming pools worth of water daily.

It’s time to fix the backbone of our nation.

On this episode of [Made in America](https://marketscale.com/shows/made-in-america/), we will take a visit to McElroy Manufacturing to talk to the team powering the adoption of thermoplastic pipe, replacing the aging metallic pipes currently coming up short, and in turn, helping fuel a new era of infrastructure in our country.
