2024 Wilson Award Finalist Distribution Facilities - Shining a Light on Safety

Windsocks play a crucial role in industrial settings where understanding wind speed and direction is essential for emergency response planning. While windsocks are easily visible during the day, they can often be missed at night. To address this, CF Industries Distribution Facilities have implemented high-visibility illuminated windsocks at their sites. These solar-powered, self-contained windsocks provide clear wind condition indicators at night, ensuring the best possible response to any emergency situation. Maintaining awareness of site conditions around the clock is a top priority. By introducing illuminated windsocks, CF’s Distribution Facilities have redefined what it means to “Do It Right.”
