Eco Material Technologies has received Southern Company’s 2026 Triangle Safety Award, recognizing outstanding safety performance on the Barry Beneficiation Project at Plant Barry in Mobile County, Alabama.

The award recognizes work on the project, where Eco Material Technologies, in collaboration with Alabama Power, has developed a fly ash beneficiation facility designed to recover stored coal ash and process it into high-quality supplementary cementitious materials, helping supply customers across the Southeast.

Established in 2002, the Triangle Safety Award recognizes a select group of contractors for outstanding safety performance on Southern Company projects. Recipients must meet standards across the full year, including:

• Top-quartile participation in STEP (Safety Through Everyone’s Participation) field observations
• Full participation and timeliness on corrective actions from site assessments
• Conformance to Technical Shared Services EHS contract requirements, with no safety non-conformance reports issued
• No outages to operating company assets
• Demonstrated support of the Stop Work Authority program
• Sustained performance across a qualifying volume of work hours

The award was presented at Southern Company’s annual awards dinner in Birmingham, Alabama, alongside this year’s other recipients.

Congratulations to everyone involved in the Barry Beneficiation Project, including our subcontractor partners, for their thorough planning, proactive communication and dedication to maintaining a safe working environment.
