What Halliday Products does

Halliday Products is a privately held, family-owned manufacturer founded in 1972 in Orlando, Florida, producing aluminum and stainless steel access infrastructure for municipal and industrial water and wastewater treatment. Operating from a single 100,000 square foot manufacturing facility, the company fabricates a broad product line including access covers (Angle Frame, Channel Frame, H20 Load Rated, Specialty, and Floodtight series), debris baskets, portable hoists, manhole safety grates, ladders, mixer masts, slide and stop gates, telescoping valves, and guide rail brackets. Core proprietary offerings include the inventor-owned Retro-Grate™ fall-through prevention system and the exclusive U.S. manufacturing rights to the patented Portable Manhole Safety Grate (U.S. Patent 10,508,405 B2) originally designed by Mass Products of Australia. Products carry H20 load ratings, AWWA 501-C conformance on slide gates, lifetime warranties on access covers, and are supported by downloadable AutoCAD specifications for engineering/specifier workflows.

The revenue model is quote-based hardware sales to two primary verticals — municipal water/wastewater utilities and industrial water treatment facilities — with no recurring software or service component. Distribution runs through a direct sales team organized across 10 U.S. regions plus international markets, an inside sales operation with dedicated phone extensions and a 4-hour quote turnaround commitment, an online quote request system, and digital marketing channels including a digital interactive catalog and annual WEFTEC trade show participation. The company serves customers across more than 16 countries spanning North America, the Caribbean, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Central America, and Asia-Pacific.

Halliday Products has operated continuously under founding-family ownership since 1972. Chris Halliday serves as President/Owner, with second-generation family members Jake and Zach Halliday in sales roles. The workforce includes many tenured employees with 20+ years of service, including some present since the company's founding. No external investors, funding rounds, parent companies, or M&A activity beyond the 2018 Mass Products license have been disclosed, and revenue figures are not publicly reported.
