Engineered to Endure
High performance composite utility poles engineered for stronger, safer, and more reliable electric grids.
Composite Utility Poles Built for the Modern Grid
RS | Resilient Structures partners with utilities around the world to deliver advanced composite utility poles engineered for long-term reliability, resilience, and cost-effective performance.
With structures deployed by over 500 utilities in more than 30 countries across five continents, RS has partnered with the transmission and distribution industry for decades.
Where Composite Poles Create the Most Value
RS composite poles deliver strong long-term value when strategically deployed in high-risk assets, maintenance-intensive structures, and areas where reliability challenges have the greatest impact.
Critical Structures & Circuits
Help protect essential services, high-value equipment, and critical circuits where failure can create costly outages and complex restoration.
High-Cost Installations
Support long-term reliability in rear easements, remote terrain, wetlands, marine environments, and other hard-to-access areas where future site visits are costly.
Extreme Environments
Resist wildfire, hurricanes, ice, moisture, corrosion, pests, and other harsh conditions that can shorten the life of traditional materials.
Built to Strengthen the Grid Where It Matters Most
RS composite poles help utilities strengthen the parts of the system where failure has the greatest impact. With proven performance in extreme conditions, RS poles help reduce initial system failures, restoration time, and associated outage costs.
Reduce outage risk
Harden vulnerable structures and circuits before failure occurs.
Protect critical assets
Safeguard transformers, conductors, and essential equipment.
Improve restoration outcomes
Structures that hold up reduce repair complexity and recovery time.
Support grid hardening programs
Designed to meet the demands of long-term reliability and resilience initiatives.
Designed for Smarter Transportation and Installation
RS poles are built from lightweight, modular sections that give utilities more flexibility in how poles are transported, staged, assembled, and installed.
Smarter Transportation
Nesting modules can simplify shipping, staging, and emergency deployment.
Installation Flexibility
Poles can be assembled on the ground, set in sections, pre-drilled, or prepared for faster installation.
Hard-to-Reach Locations
Lightweight sections can support installation in remote, rear easement, wetland, and other difficult-access areas.
Proprietary Technology Built for Strength, Protection, and Longevity
The RS Technology Suite brings together advanced composite engineering, precision manufacturing, and integrated protection systems to support long-term pole performance in demanding environments.
Resilience Factor
Engineered reserve strength helps RS poles withstand extreme loads and return to shape after stress.
DuraWOUND™
Precision-applied filament windings create a dense, uniform composite structure with strong wall performance and impact resistance.
DuraBOND™
Integrated finish technology helps protect against UV exposure, moisture, abrasion, fading, and long-term wear.
Long-Term Value for Today’s Utility Challenges
RS composite utility poles are designed to help utilities reduce lifecycle costs, improve reliability, support safe field work, and extend performance in challenging conditions.
Strengthening the World’s Electric Grids Through Engineered Performance
Helping utilities build reliable networks that protect communities, enhance safety, and stand strong in demanding conditions.
