Volume 11 April 2017 Edition Riverdale Mills WireWall® Secures Borders & Embassies Worldwide According to White House Budget Director Mike Mulvaney, “while no decisions have been made on exactly what the [U.S.- Mexico border] wall will look like… much of the new barrier will be fencing rather than a complete concrete wall.” Riverdale Mills anticipates its WireWall product will be used to build portions of the wall. For over 30 years, Riverdale Mills Corpora- tion has worked with security consultants and companies worldwide to ensure military bases, embassies, transit systems, airports and prisons are highly secure and well-protected.
