The SMITH-MIDLAND® Corporation entered the marketplace in 1960 as
the Smith Cattleguard Company.
From the beginning we provided innovative, high quality precast
concrete products backed by superior service.
Although the name has changed and the products we offer have increased
ten-fold, we never have deviated from the standards on which our
success was built - innovation, quality and service.
That's what we mean by Excellence in Precast Concrete and
we welcome the opportunity to share that excellence with you.

ABOUT US
A History of Innovation
David G. Smith produced the first SMITH-MIDLAND® precast product, the Smith-Cattleguard in Midland, Virginia, in 1960. Over the years, as we met the challenges of the times, we added a full line of farm products, along with J-J Hooks safety barriers, utility products, EASI-SET® and EASI-SPAN® precast buildings, SLENDERWALL®, Sierra Wall and other custom designed products.
Our facilities expanded from a small farm outbuilding to a modern
complex of office and production buildings on a 20 acre site, with
a second manufacturing facility in Reidsville, North Carolina.
In 1985, in celebration of a quarter century of progress and to better represent the diversity of our products, the name of the company was changed from Smith Cattleguard Company to SMITH-MIDLAND® Corporation and SMITH-CAROliNA® Corporation.
December 1995 marked another milestone in the growth of the companies when the privately held corporation made a public stock offering and is now listed on the NASDAQ and Boston Stock Exchanges.
A Standard of Quality in Production
SMITH-MIDLAND's® and SMITH-CAROliNA's® production excellence is based on a thorough understanding of precast
concrete technology backed by the skills, facilities and experience
necessary to produce quality precast products.
Our manufacturing plants include steel shops, form fabrication
shops, automated concrete batch plants and environmentally controlled
casting areas.
Production integrity begins with detailed designs and is implemented with quality materials, precision molds, and extra care in finishing and handling. We place special emphasis on quality control at every stage of production.

characteristics of precast concrete make it the ideal material
