Northwest Pipe Co. has announced a name change to NWPX Infrastructure Inc.
The Vancouver, Wash.-based maker of water-related infrastructure products said on Thursday the rebrand to NWPX Infrastructure “marks a significant milestone.”
The company said in a statement the change symbolizes “its transformation into a modern, solutions-driven infrastructure provider with a national footprint.”
“The new name reflects the company’s expanded capabilities in precast and engineered systems and a broader, more diversified product offering,” NWPX said.
At the same time, it still honors the “legacy of quality, integrity, and performance by retaining its long-standing Nasdaq ticker symbol, NWPX.”
The company will continue to operate its engineered steel pressure pipe plants and products under the Northwest Pipe Co. brand.
However, the Geneva Pipe and Precast and ParkUSA lines will transition to NWPX Geneva and NWPX ParkUSA, respectively.
The company said a new corporate logo and visual identity would be rolled out.
“Our transition to NWPX Infrastructure represents much more than a name change,” Scott Montross, president and CEO, said in the statement. “It reflects who we are today — a forward-looking company addressing the nation’s most critical water infrastructure challenges.”
