Congratulations are in order for Fencing Direct partner Barrette Outdoor Living for winning the Duke Energy Power Partner Award for Sustainability Excellence. 

The award honors a solar panel installation on Barrette’s 300,000-square-foot manufacturing facility, the largest array in the state at the time of the contract. The solar panels offset about 81% of the facility’s energy use.

Fencing Direct strives to serve our customers with the highest quality fencing products while also respecting the environment and using as sustainable business practices as possible. That’s why we’re proud to have a partner like Barrette Outdoor Living in our Rolodex. 

Barrette’s plant also reclaims 97% of aluminum powder coating and a closed-loop water system. Their innovative approach to energy conservation and green business practices make them a leader in our field that we should all aspire to equal.
