Smith-Midland Awarded $2.2M SlenderWall Coast Guard Project

MIDLAND, VA / ACCESS Newswire / August 26, 2026 / Smith-Midland Corporation (NASDAQ:SMID), a leading manufacturer of innovative precast concrete products for transportation, infrastructure, and building construction, has been awarded a $2.2 million contract to manufacture and supply its SlenderWall architectural precast wall system for the new U.S. Coast Guard Clinic and Visitors Center in Charleston, South Carolina, further expanding the company's portfolio of mission-critical government and military construction projects.

The contract further strengthens Smith-Midland's position in the architectural precast market and demonstrates demand for SlenderWall on complex institutional and government projects. As investments in resilient infrastructure and federal facilities continue, Smith-Midland remains well positioned to provide innovative precast solutions that help owners reduce construction timelines while achieving long-lasting building performance.

"Projects like the U.S. Coast Guard Clinic and Visitors Center highlight the increasing demand for resilient, high-performance building systems that can meet the unique requirements of government and military facilities," said Matthew Smith, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Smith-Midland Corporation. "Our SlenderWall system combines architectural flexibility with exceptional durability and construction efficiency, making it an ideal solution for mission-critical projects."

The project features SlenderWall panels fabricated with white and gray architectural concrete and finished with an acid-etched surface, creating a clean, modern appearance while providing the long-term performance expected of federal facilities. Production is expected to begin at Smith-Midland's Virginia manufacturing facility in April 2027, with installation scheduled to begin in November 2027.

Engineered with resilience in mind, the building's ground floor has been specifically designed to accommodate storm surge flows, improving the facility's ability to withstand severe weather events while maintaining long-term operational reliability. Smith-Midland's SlenderWall system complements these design objectives by providing a lightweight, high-performance architectural envelope that delivers durability, energy efficiency, and accelerated construction.

The new facility is designed to support the operational and healthcare needs of the U.S. Coast Guard by housing medical and dental services, work-life staff offices, and counseling areas. The project also includes a new entry control point featuring a guard house and visitor check-in center to enhance campus security and visitor access.
