D.S. Brown’s comprehensive pavement product line has been well established not only in North America but for critical base requirements at many U.S. military facilities around the world. Meeting specific requirements as well as time-critical factors have established D.S. Brown and its pavement solutions as a leader for global partners looking for those same high-quality infrastructure solutions.
Uriah Carpenter, D.S. Brown’s International Sales Manager, Pavement, and team members have been growing D.S. Brown’s international presence with pavement products since 2022.
“These products are typically considered off-the-shelf, so they don’t have to be project-specific like our highly engineered bridge products,” said Carpenter. “D.S. Brown’s long history of success with our pavement products in airport applications made this a great initiative worldwide, where many of these products are considered ‘new technology’.”
Products like Delpatch™ Elastomeric Concrete, Delastic Preformed Pavement Seals and Pavesaver+™ as well as D.S. Brown-led joint repair training are now highly sought by international customers.
Through D.S. Brown’s work with U.S. Military bases worldwide, the sales team has focused on its goal of growing its presence at international commercial airports.
Tom Lewis, VP Customer Service, Sales & Marketing, and Carpenter have attended several overseas airport conferences in 2023, including the Saudi Airports Exhibition in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, the Vietnam Aero Summit in Hanoi, Vietnam, and the Inter Airport South-East Asia Conference in Singapore. Lewis and Carpenter have met with airport owners, consultants, suppliers, contractors, and many more involved in airport construction.
Carpenter presented on 'Long-Term Solutions for Concrete Pavement' at the Vietnam Aero Summit, where the host nation has some of the most significant airport construction initiatives globally. Vietnam is one of the fastest growing aviation markets globally and it would be the fifth fastest-growing market by 2035.
