According to tirereview.com, Barco Products has introduced a new line of recycled rubber speed bumps and wheel stops that meet Buy America, Build America, or BABA, standards. The lineup is manufactured in the U.S., targeting government and municipal buyers who must satisfy federal funding rules. Barco says the products are built for long life while supporting domestic production and recycled-materials sourcing.
The new range includes Standard Recycled Rubber Speed Bump Kits, Speed Bump Sections, End Caps, and Wheel Stops. All items are engineered for exceptional durability and are made from 100% recycled rubber. Customers can buy complete kits or choose individual components, so installations can be tailored to lot size and layout.
Alisha Hairston, Traffic Safety Specialist at Barco Products, notes that the BABA-compliant traffic safety products expand the companys U.S.-made product portfolio. That positioning makes it easier for municipalities and agencies to specify Barco parts when federal grants or other funding streams require domestic manufacture.
Typical applications called out include parking areas at tire dealers and automotive repair shops, along with broader commercial and municipal sites that need traffic calming and clear vehicle positioning. The wheel stops and modular sections simplify installation and repair, because damaged pieces can be replaced without redoing an entire run.
Manufacturing in the United States ensures these items meet BABA requirements, which expect products purchased with federal funds to be domestically produced. For agencies writing specs around Buy America, Build America, Barcos announcement reduces a common procurement headache while keeping recycled content in the supply chain.
This launch reflects Barcos stated commitment to supplying site furnishings and traffic safety equipment that support both sustainability and domestic manufacturing. For public works departments and contractors who balance federal compliance, lifecycle cost, and environmental goals, the new recycled rubber speed bumps and wheel stops provide a compliant, recyclable option.
