Built with years of fiberglass experience and utilities expertise.
Geotek brings more than 35 years of fiberglass pultrusion experience to the PUPI manufacturing process. Engineered for the unique demands of the utilities industry, PUPI crossarm performance continues to improve thanks to years of testing and research.

Strength and deflection testing.
Numerous mechanical tests from independent test facilities demonstrate that PUPI crossarms exceed stated load limits. For example, PUPI 8 ft crossarms tested at 30,010 lb loads (15,005 lbs per side) experienced more than 5” of deflection without compromising structural integrity.


UV testing.
PUPI SunGuard Coating provides unmatched field protection against the damages of UV rays. In independent testing using the U.S. Department of Agriculture's specified 2500 hours of accelerated testing, PUPI crossarms showed no degradation in flexural strength, modulus and deflection and there was no visible change in the color or gloss of the crossarm.
