When it comes to protecting underground utilities, knowledge and technology play critical roles in enhancing safety and efficiency. Recently, we had the privilege of joining the 3M Locating & Marking (L&M) Team in Chicago for WEFTEC, where our teams were able to educate visitors about the benefits of radio frequency (RF) pathmarking, an innovative approach that has been making waves within the utility industry.
Utility companies that have adopted RF pathmarking have experienced improvements in their operations. By integrating this new system into their workflow, they’ve been able to pinpoint the exact locations of underground utilities with exceptional speed. This translates to reduced risk of damage during excavation, minimized downtime, and enhanced safety for both workers and the public.
