Construction is an all-American industry whose workers literally built this country. Serving an essential role in keeping our country’s construction sites safe and productive are safety marking products. Buying American-made safety marking products means structural sites are not only using standard-meeting, quality products, but these purchases also support U.S. employment efforts.

Presco is proud to offer many American-made safety marking products that support both the domestic building industry and our national economy. Let’s take a look at what we offer and why buying American isn’t just patriotic, but shrewd, safe, and savvy as well.

Buying Non-American Has Its Drawbacks

Many companies either aren’t paying attention to where their purchased products are manufactured or are purposely outsourcing these goods to other countries in an attempt to cut costs. Unfortunately, these off-shore products are often of inferior quality and don’t meet basic specifications. In fact, they may not even meet OSHA standards, which can lead to violations and possible fines for organizations that use them. In addition, due to frequent delays encountered overseas, receiving these products on time is commonly problematic, resulting in missed project deadlines, unnecessary costs, and overall inconvenience for stakeholders and builders alike.

Quality is an American Value

When companies partner with Presco, they experience quick turnaround because our products are shipped from our Texas location. That means contractors have the tools needed for projects on time and on budget, allowing for optimized workflows.

Furthermore, Presco’s high-quality marking products exceed industry specifications and meet all OSHA standards, keeping workers safe while preventing potentially tragic and often expensive workplace incidents.

Presco Celebrates ItsSemisesquicentennial

In 2018, Presco celebrates its 75thanniversary as a premier manufacturer of safety marking products. Presco has built our sterling reputation on providing extraordinary customer service and satisfaction by solving our customers’ needs using American integrity and intuition. Presco provides our customers with a wide variety of marking tape solutions, most manufactured right here in the USA.

When choosing safety marking products for construction projects, consider the benefits of buying American. Check out our entire line of products at http://www.presco.com/marking-products/.

Packaging robots can beat labor long term on cost, PMMI argues

Packaging robots can beat labor long term on cost, PMMI argues

PMMI's Tom Egan wrote in Processing Magazine that adding packaging automation and robotics can now be justified as more cost-effective over the long term than the high cost of labor in food, beverage and CPG plants. Separately, Packaging World describes AI-enabled AMRs from ABB and Agilox that automate material movement between packaging stations. The remaining gap is adoption among smaller manufacturers.

  • 01Two reference points for infrastructure-light material movement: ABB's Flexley Mover P603 carries 1,500 kg with sub-centimeter positioning and no floor markers, and Agilox's OFL lifts 800 kg pallets on peer-to-peer fleet software with no central traffic controller, per Packaging World.
  • 02The open ground is small and mid-sized manufacturers: MTC's Mike Wilson counts tens of thousands of UK SMEs with no robotic automation at all and expects cobots to take most of that growth.
  • 03A robotics business case should include procurement, not only line labor: a June 2026 China Journal of Accounting Research study found heavy robot adopters spread buying across more suppliers, gaining resilience but losing inventory efficiency and adding transaction costs.

Xtellio brings telematics to jobsite tools and heaters

Xtellio brings telematics to jobsite tools and heaters

Xtellio launched a two-tier telematics platform in March 2026: 32 battery-powered Xense sensors for small tools and wired Pro-Xentral devices for excavators, light towers and heaters. The company claims a 10-year battery life. Data is delivered through open APIs, which Xtellio frames as customer ownership of the data, aimed at rental and construction fleets where small assets have gone largely untracked.

  • 01Xtellio’s stated 10-year battery life for its Bluetooth Xense sensors is the key spec to test in the field; if it holds up, tagging hundreds of tools can look like a one-time install rather than a recurring battery-maintenance program.
  • 02For rental houses and contractors running mixed fleets, the sharper question is no longer which machines have telematics but whether the heaters, light towers and hand tools do, and whether that data lands in the same system.
  • 03Open APIs and “data liberation” are part of Xtellio’s pitch, and the coverage frames that as a prompt for RFP questions: what the APIs expose, where data can be sent, and whether customers can take historical data if they switch providers.

Senate bill would double smart water grants to $50 million a year

Senate bill would double smart water grants to $50 million a year

S. 2388, the Water Infrastructure Modernization Act of 2025, would double an EPA water tech pilot to $50 million a year through 2028. Grants would cover design, construction, training and operations for leak detection, advanced metering and AI analytics, WaterWorld reported. Planning and maintenance stay on the utility's tab.

  • 01Under S. 2388 as WaterWorld describes it, feasibility studies are not grant-eligible, so a utility would have to pay to build the case for a smart water project before applying for help building the project itself.
  • 02The bill's eligible list puts advanced digital design and construction management tools in the same bucket as meters and sensors, which would give a utility's capital delivery team a claim on the same grant as its field operations group.
  • 03The existing pilot program's authorization runs through 2026, per WaterWorld; the bill would extend it to 2028, and its last reported status was 'introduced' as of Aug. 12, 2025.
