When it comes to flexibility and performance, high-quality Presco products deliver results for the construction industry. Our extensive line of marking products, including flags, tape, and whiskers, give professionals all the right tools they need for a job well done. Presco Safety Marking Products are a job requirement in every phase of land development and construction. Let’s take a look.

Different Needs Require Different Products

Depending on the intended use, there are unique products to address specific needs. Barricade tape, for example, is an important safety aid which is often mandatory and guided by a variety of rules and regulations. Barricade tape may be used as a safety measure to mark hazards and ensure safety compliance. It can also be used to restrict or drive the flow of people or machinery. It comes in a variety of colors to convey different messages; such as red, to identify a danger, and yellow, to indicate caution should be taken.

Presco has Specialty Products That Can be Used in Each Phase of Construction

There are Presco products appropriate for each phase of construction and land development:

  • Preparation Phase– When land or a job site is under development, surveyors use Presco Marking Flags to identify where proposed construction will take place and indicate where utilities are located.
  • Development Phase– As a construction project comes closer to beginning, Roll Flagging Tape and Marking Whiskers are used in addition to Marking Flags to help shape the land and prepare it for building.
  • Land Break Phase– After the site has been laid out, the land is broken into lots to lay the groundwork for infrastructure installation. In addition to Marking Flags, Roll Flagging Tape, and Marking Whiskers, Detectable Underground Warning Tape is used to ensure utility protection.
  • Construction Phase– As concrete and steel arrive on site, Stake Chasers and Barricade Tape are used to warn of hazardous areas and safety concerns. “Caution” and “Danger” tapes will be prominent, along with other types of safety barricade tape legends and styles. During the building infrastructure phase, Pennant Flags and Adhesive Tape are also useful tools.
  • Improvement phase– Even after major construction is complete, the new owner will want to improve the look and design of their facility. Whether planting trees, adding additional parking, or building a water feature, Presco Marking Flags, Underground Warning Tapes, Barricade Tapes, and Roll Flagging Tapes should always be used to help warn of unsafe conditions and help prevent accidents.

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.
