National Loop Company Proudly Meets The Build America, Buy America (BABA) Act

BABA Certified

The Buy American Act is a guide that was created by federal agencies that requires all iron, steel, construction materials, and manufactured products used in federally funded infrastructure to be produced in the United States. Prioritizing domestic production of these large-scale infrastructure products creates more job opportunities, boosts our economic resilience, and promotes local American businesses. While BABA mainly is centered around the public sector, its influence reaches the private sector for companies that work on government-funded projects. The vehicle loops that we carry made by National Loop Company meet BABA certification.

How Does BABA Relate to Vehicle Loops?

Vehicle loops can play a huge role in public infrastructure projects that may be funded through government agencies. Roads, highways, buildings, bridges, and airports are all considered to be infrastructures that can be within the public sector, and are all prime examples of where vehicle loops may be used. For example, vehicle loops are necessary for traffic signal actuation and intersection control in roadways. According to the Build America, Buy America Act, the vehicle loops used for public traffic signals are required to be produced in America.

Public Sector Examples Where Vehicle Loops May Be Used

  • Traffic Signals for Roadways
  • Vehicle Monitoring for Airports
  • Gate Access Control for Government Funded Buildings
