Chain Link Fence Industry Supports Infrastructure Bill with Cost-Effective Fencing Security Systems

Apr 11, 2022


The Chain Link Fence Industry offers unique solutions and tools for communities across the U.S. as they gear up for infrastructure bill projects.


Columbia, Maryland Apr 10, 2022 (Issuewire.com) - As the U.S. government seeks to increase infrastructure upgrading and innovation with over $100 billion in annual spending, the chain link industry offers a wide range of cost-effective, high security, anti-intrusion, perimeter security systems to support any level of the infrastructure project. 

Additionally, the Chain Link Fence Manufacturers Institute offers several tools to assist infrastructure professionals and agencies to determine and design the most appropriate and cost-effective systems to meet their needs. These tools include technical guides for installation and security, as well as technical support from chain link industry experts. 

For infrastructure projects, today's chain link offers some of the best options for enhancing pedestrian safety and visibility; reducing vehicular accidents and damage; deterring animal access to highways, roads, and bridges; and maximizing project budgets.

Chain link has an unbroken record of being the most cost-effective perimeter protection product capable of meeting ASTM/industry needs at every level of perimeter physical security. And, perhaps, most importantly, chain link's higher tensile strength, anti-corrosive properties and specialized coatings create huge savings in repair and replacement costs - funds that can be used for other high-priority project needs.

In addition to its cost-effectiveness, chain link provides unsurpassed safety features through increased pedestrian safety and visibility and also the reduction of vehicular accidents and damage. According to the Federal Highway Administration, each year, 1-2 million animal-related vehicle accidents cause an estimated $8 billion in damages and 200 human fatalities. Chain link's flexibility and see-through properties make it the go-to system for reducing animal intrusions and accidents on roads and bridges. 

As communities across the country prepare for major infrastructure projects, chain link systems maximize project budgets and help solve the challenges safety and security contracts face to harden perimeters on roads, bridges, military bases, airports, and other infrastructure projects.

To stay relevant, PH mall chain evolves with the times

To stay relevant, PH mall chain evolves with the times

Sep 17, 2026

The term “malling” has been in use since the late 1970s and meant just that — a trip to the mall to hang out with friends, shop for groceries, have a meal or catch a movie. For decades, it was a favorite pastime of many, but consumers’ needs have changed and continue evolving. “We are seeing that Filipinos care more about experiences than just buying things,” said Steven Tan, president of SM Supermalls, at a media briefing held Sept. 10. To meet that shift in demand, the country’s largest mall chain has been going beyond expanding its footprint by providing spaces and serving as a venue for Filipinos to explore their varied interests. That evolution is reflected in the way SM Supermalls is reshaping its spaces and programming to respond to the activities and experiences that matter most to consumers today. Among the clearest indications of that shift is the growing interest in wellness and social activities, which malls are increasingly incorporating into their spaces and events. Over 40,000 runners participated in the Galaxy Manila Marathon and SM2SM Cebu events this year. “The numbers we’re seeing for active lifestyle are really amazing,” Tan said, adding that wellness is now part of people’s daily routines. “We now have 102 pickleball courts spread across 32 SM malls nationwide.” The arts have also long been championed by the chain. In the ‘90s, one of the upper floors at SM Megamall was devoted to art galleries and exhibits. Since then, its cultural offerings have expanded with the opening of Museo del Galeon, events like Art for Everyone, and interactive campaigns like Gala to the Max. Tan also announced key milestones for the chain, including the newly opened SM Seaside Cebu Arena and the launch of SM Supermalls’ 90th location in Zamboanga City earlier this year. “With 25,000 seats, SM Seaside Cebu Arena is actually bigger than our Mall of Asia Arena. It will now bring world-class concepts, concerts, and major sporting events in the Visayas region,” he said. “[The Zamboanga opening], meanwhile, marks another major step in deepening our presence across Mindanao, bringing lifestyle experiences to even more communities.” By November this year, SM Nuvali will open along the South Luzon corridor. Once operational, the sprawling mall will house the country’s first LED cinema screen experience of its kind. Matching consumer demand, SM’s tenant footprint grew four percent in the first half of 2026, surpassing 23,000 tenants nationwide. “Food, leisure, and lifestyle concepts are leading the demand right now,” said Hanna Carinna Sy, senior assistant vice president for marketing and leasing. “We’re actively curating a mix that keeps shoppers staying longer.” Over the next six months, several existing malls will undergo property upgrades, including SM City Iloilo, SM City Naga, SM City Santo Tomas in Batangas, and SM Aura. Beyond retail, SM has been supporting local economies by partnering with nearly 900 small businesses daily, hosting trade fairs for 3,000 entrepreneurs, and connecting over 330,000 job seekers through more than 500 job fairs. Its environmental programs also focus on nationwide plastic collection and solar power integration. “We want to grow, but we want to grow responsibly,” Tan said, noting that the company aims to build lasting opportunities and spaces where communities can connect.
