Turner Industries has been recognized with a 2025 ENR Texas & Louisiana Best Projects Award in the Best Energy category for its work on the Skyfall Biologicals Pilot Plant in Geismar, Louisiana. The Engineering News-Record (ENR) award honors excellence in construction and design across the region.

Turner served as both a key advisor and contractor for the Skyfall pilot plant. Much of the plant was prefabricated with “package units” manufactured in the U.S. and Germany. Turner’s team, working off Navisworks models and piping and instrumentation diagrams, performed civil, piping/mechanical, crane and rigging, scaffolding, painting, insulation, and electrical installations. They also set a boiler, chiller, air dryer tank, and an air compressor.

The ENR Best Projects Awards recognize outstanding construction projects based on criteria including safety, innovation, and teamwork. Winners are selected by independent juries of industry leaders in design and construction.

For the Skyfall Biologicals pilot plant construction, the Turner team remained on site for two months beyond the original scope to provide commissioning support. Ultimately, they logged 18,199 hours, completing the project ahead of time, under budget, and recordable free. In addition to the potato dormancy-enhancing product, the pilot plant also produces an all-natural insect repellent.
