  • When standards are clear, decisions are easier. The publication of ASTM F3754 gives engineers a consistent way to evaluate polypropylene stormwater crate systems. Aquabox meets the new standard and is supported by third-party verification, proven operation and maintenance performance, and design expertise from the ADS Design Center.

    $2B market cap in 2017. More than $10B today. $3.1B in revenue. 31.6% Adjusted EBITDA margin.   That's Advanced Drainage Systems, Inc. — the company behind the pipe under the parking lot, the drainage channel on the highway, the septic chamber beneath the new subdivision. The infrastructure that keeps water moving, quietly, everywhere.   In the latest episode of the Titanium Economy Podcast, Akshay Sethi sits down with D. Scott Barbour, President and CEO of Advanced Drainage Systems, to discuss how that growth happened and what it takes to keep building from here.   A few things that stood out:   Three moves drove the story. Get pricing right. Fix cost and logistics. Make the right acquisitions.   Material conversion is a decade-long runway. Only 35 to 40% of the market has converted from concrete to plastic. Each new market requires regulatory approval, engineering acceptance, then contractor adoption. ADS runs that playbook every day.   Recycling is an economic strategy, not a marketing message. 500 million pounds of plastic recycled annually, vertically integrated into the resin supply. As virgin and recycled resin prices diverge, that integration compounds.   The biggest acquisition mistake is moving too fast. You don't see what makes a business tick until you own it. ADS has never missed an integration plan. Many thanks to Scott for the time and perspective on a playbook that has quietly built one of America's most durable water infrastructure businesses.   Watch on YouTube: https://lnkd.in/gV6mPqB8 Listen wherever you get your podcasts: https://lnkd.in/gKNWQe6q   Note: figures sourced from ADS earnings releases

    Every highway that drains after a storm. Every construction site that stays dry. Every farm that doesn't flood. Advanced Drainage Systems, Inc. (ADS) is the reason.   Since 1966, ADS has done one thing exceptionally well: managing water. Stormwater, onsite wastewater, drainage across commercial, residential, infrastructure, and agriculture. 70 manufacturing facilities. 5,800+ employees. $3.1Bn in revenue. ~$10Bn market cap. And 2.8 billion pounds of plastic recycled in just the last five years. The compounding shows: 9x share price growth since IPO in 2014.   D. Scott Barbour, President and CEO of ADS, calls it "the Great American story." A couple of young engineers with a product. Salespeople who found the market. Capital raised, plants built, risks taken, acquisitions made. Built over decades into a company with real scale and real impact. Proud to spotlight Advanced Drainage Systems as part of the Industrials 250. 250 companies that have built, powered, and grown America across 250 years of independence.   Watch the i250 video: https://lnkd.in/gYHXAGU8 | Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gQgQ_8Db For questions, reach out to JD Kristenson (谭舒凯), Gaurav Batra, or Nidhi Arora. #Industrials250 #AdvancedDrainageSystems #AmericanManufacturing #WaterManagement #MadeInAmerica
