MIDLAND, VA / ACCESS Newswire / May 1, 2025 / Smith-Midland Corporation (NASDAQ: SMID), a provider of innovative, high-quality proprietary and patented precast concrete products and systems, will begin manufacturing SlenderWall precast concrete panels for the Refueling and Complex Overhaul (RCOH) building for Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) in Newport News, VA.

"We look forward to providing our SlenderWall panels to the Shipyard project in Newport News, Virginia. Our all-in-one precast system not only reduces installation time and costs but also enhances the building's sustainability and longevity. Our collaboration on this project highlights our dedication to providing cutting-edge, efficient solutions that meet the evolving needs of modern construction," said Matthew Smith, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Smith-Midland.

SlenderWall is an advanced, all-in-one architectural precast concrete cladding system designed to deliver superior performance with significant cost savings. Engineered for efficiency, it integrates architectural precast concrete, interior framing, insulation, and a vapor barrier into a single, lightweight panel, eliminating the need for multiple trades and reducing on-site labor. Its innovative design not only accelerates construction timelines but also enhances sustainability by minimizing material waste and improving energy efficiency. With a durable, maintenance-friendly build that meets modern green building standards, SlenderWall is the smart choice for developers seeking a high-performance, cost-effective, and environmentally responsible façade solution.

"The building will provide dedicated space near the ship that will include office spaces for sailors and shipbuilders, as well as a fitness center, counseling offices, and other areas sailors can utilize while executing RCOH," said a spokesperson for NAVSEA.
