Over 30 years ago, Leonard A. Worden founded Concrete Systems, Inc (CSI) in Hudson, N.H. The company initially produced dry cast manholes and catch basins. The success of those items would lead to the 25- acre production facility creating a "Precast Division". This division would manufacture box culverts, retaining wall systems, Con/Span bridge systems and custom structures. The reliability of those products has made CSI one of the leading precast concrete manufacturing facilities in the country.
In 1984, CSI developed its custom "Turn Key" precast concrete modular building system. The demand for this product was so overwhelming that CSI expanded to a 60,000 square foot manufacturing facility in Londonderry, NH. The division became known as CSI Shelter Technologies. Over the last 17 years the telecommunications and utilities boom has helped increase CSI's annual sales over 40 percent. Recent additions to our facility has given us double our manufacturing and outfitting space. The improvements to our plant have greatly enhanced our ability to produce quality shelters that our customers have come to rely on.
The design of our shelters is engineered to meet the stringent needs of the telecommunication and utility markets. Each shelter is made from 5,000 PSI steel reinforced concrete, providing maximum security, all weather protection and structural integrity. By casting the walls and roof together, it adds seamless strength that traditional panel designs cannot compete with.
Our expandable 21' wide and 12' wide series gives customers the ability to purchase a shelter for what their needs are today while giving them the option of growing for tomorrows wants. The monolithically poured walls and roof give our Micro series an added strength design that has no seams or joints.
Customers are given a choice of finishes to add aesthetic appeal to their building. All of the shelters are completely outfitted prior to delivery with customization packages that range from full electrical, heating and air conditioning to plumbing and interior finishes.
Through out the manufacturing process, Shelter Technologies conducts an extensive quality assurance program in order to meet all customer requirements including on-site delivery and operational set up. In keeping with the broadening base of users these structures have been carefully engineered to provide a wide array of expandable sizes to meet any customers needs. Our structures are designed to meet the requirements of loading of the American National Standards (ANS) "Building Code Requirements for Minimum Design Loads in Buildings and Other Structures" and the requirements for the American Concrete Institute (ACI-318-05) "Building Code Requirement for Reinforced Concrete".
Our number one commitment is to customer satisfaction. Our customers have high expectations and we meet them time and time again. Shelter Technologies combination of a dependable product and skilled sales/engineering support staff give our clients the quality, reliability and service they are looking for.
Our company continues to grow and prosper in a constantly changing market. Our ability to lead the way in innovative applications has given our company the opportunity to develop long term relationships with some of the countries largest telecommunication and utility companies.
