Publisher’s Message – May Cover Features SSC Underground
Over the years, Trenchless Technology has had the privilege of sharing the rich history of companies in our industry. In this issue, our cover story highlights the journey of SSC Underground, a family-owned trenchless contractor that has risen from a humble beginning to emerge as a prominent industry contractor.
Through faith, dedication, and a relentless pursuit of excellence, SSC Underground — through the Veidmark family — has not only thrived but also set new standards in trenchless technology. It’s always fascinating to me to hear how people start up a business and this story delivers!
Trenchless Technology Directory
As far back as I can remember we’ve been publishing a printed Trenchless Technology Directory to give our readers a place to start when locating for a contractor, manufacturer or engineering firm. While the look has changed over the years — most notably through our digital version — the purpose is always the same: to help you find the products and services you need for trenchless projects, and to connect you with others in the industry.
In this issue you’ll find the print version of the Trenchless Technology Directory featuring 750-plus trenchless companies, including:
- 234 Contractor listings
- 348 Manufacturer/Supplier listings
- 193 Professional Service Provider listings
For more in-depth information about the companies in the Directory, go to our online version where you can search by company, product/service category and/or keyword. Other features in the Online Directory include a Classifieds section; videos showing equipment in action; and more in-depth information about listed companies. Access the Online Directory at: directory.trenchlesstechnology.com/
If you’re a contractor, manufacturer, supplier or professional service provider and want to be listed in the Directory, complete the online listing form here: directory.trenchlesstechnology.com/join to immediately connect with the trenchless network of experts.
Project of the Year Nominations Due
Our team loves a good industry event and there’s none better than the NASTT No-Dig Show! Presenting our annual Trenchless Technology magazine Person of the Year Award and Projects of the Year Awards at the No-Dig Show’s opening breakfast is always a highlight for us, as we share incredible stories and people. We get to formally recognize participants of award-winning projects and our annual Person of the Year, which is truly a privilege and an honor for our team.
If you are working on a milestone project, or know of one, I’d like to encourage you to nominate the project for Trenchless Technology’s 2024 Project of the Year Award.
