Several colleges and universities have made their homes here as well, bringing sporting teams and fans along with them.

The 2020 Hurricane season rocked the Gulf Coast states and much of the Atlantic coast, with a record-breaking 30 named storms this season. 12 storms made landfall in the continental United States, specifically in Miami, Houston, and several areas of Lousiana. Moreover, meteorologists are predicting more abnormalities like this in the coming years. So what does this mean for the precast concrete industry? The experts at Permacast Precast Concrete Fencing & Walls have some excellent thoughts about how to be prepared before next year’s massive hurricane season.
It doesn’t seem possible that more changes and developments can be on the horizon in the world of concrete, but that’s exactly what’s happening. Thanks to recent bio-research, an organism was discovered that creates its own anti-freeze proteins, allowing it to live in sub-zero temperatures. Researchers have now found ways to emulate this organism, creating a polymer molecule with anti-freeze abilities that will keep concrete from cracking and crumbling when the temperature drops. At Permacast Precast Concrete Fences & Walls, we’re very excited about what this means for the future of our industry. Are you ready for concrete that lasts winter after winter no matter how far the temperature drops? Keep reading- you’ll be amazed!
Surviving a hurricane or two can definitely make anyone feel like a storm expert. After storm prepping, stockpiling food, water, gas and batteries, and hunkering down during the worst of the high winds and pounding rain, most residents feel empowered to face the next hurricane season with a certain level of expertise.

But what do Florida and Texas residents do when even the predictable storms act, well, unpredictably? Permacast Precast Concrete points to the unusual phenomenon that occurred in Florida in 2017 as an example of even predictable weather sometimes surprising us. During Hurricane Irma, the superstorm that swept Florida and sent thousands evacuating in the middle of the night, Tampa Bay experienced a reverse storm surge that intrigued locals and baffled scientists.
