Strategic Initiative - Safe Digging
•
•
Federal Signal is well positioned to establish a leading position in an emerging application for
vacuum-excavation technology; increased regulation expected to accelerate growth
What is it?
Vacuum excavation or "Safe Digging" involves the use
of pressurized air or water ("hydro-excavation") to dig
(coupled with a vacuum system) as an alternative to
the use of traditional equipment such as backhoes
and mechanical excavators
Acceptance of safe-digging applications continues to
improve significantly over the last decade
Application has been widely accepted in Canada; US is
behind but great early indicators - 19 states now
include vacuum excavation as part of "safe excavation
practices"
Why is it Attractive?
• In many circumstances, vacuum excavation is a safer
and more productive means for digging (in comparison
to traditional excavation)
•
•
•
Significantly minimizes chances of damage to
underground infrastructure during the digging process
Less intrusive to the surrounding site at point of
digging; environmental benefits
Provides significant environmental benefits by
minimizing damage to tree roots (as demonstrated in
the image below)
Provides opportunity for the use of our broad range of
offerings in new and emerging end markets beyond oil
and gas
