Farmer's Rice Cooperative Project
Interstates recently collaborated with Farmer's Rice Cooperative in Woodland, CA, to deliver a comprehensive electrical and controls automation upgrade and expansion at a rice milling facility. The project, Interstates’ first modular container initiative in the state of California, was split into two main components: modular and automation. The modular container solution involved Interstates delivering a turnkey package of two 8-foot by 20-foot shipping containers outfitted as an electric room. These containers were integrated into the mill’s existing building and included pre-installed power distribution equipment. On the automation front, Interstates provided electrical control panels and touchscreen kiosks, along with a new control system programmed from scratch.
