Industries We’ve Served
Learn More about the relationship between lightning protection services and the various industries we serve.
Commercial
Commercial
Commercial structures have unique requirements that many other facilities don’t have to worry about. The visual impact on the architect’s design is a critical design requirement. Nearly always an architectural design feature can be incorporated into the Lightning Protection System to minimize the visual impact.
Data Centers & Communication
Data Centers & Communication
Data center and communication system availability has become the Achilles heel of a company’s success due to the high economic impact of outages. Designers strive to optimize their reliability through redundancy and maintainability. A comprehensive Facility Protection System is a key part of risk management.
Health Care
Health Care
There is no more critical application of Lightning Protection than in the Healthcare industry. These facilities incorporate many of the same issues of commercial structures while having the design complexities of a data center. Only a comprehensive design process can adequately meet all of these combined needs.
Industrial
Industrial
An industrial facilities Lightning Protection design is unique. Much of the comprehensive Lightning Protection system consists of Grounding, Bonding, and Surge Suppression. It’s these systems that enable an industrial facility to continue operations after a lightning event.
Government and Military
Government and Military
There is a lightning-caused explosion at a mission-critical federal government facility every year. We take pride in delivering the highest quality systems and solutions to our military and government personnel. With some of our staff being retired military, this provides VFC with the knowledge and expertise critical for the unique needs of military projects.

Lightning Protection for Power Generation / Utilities
Lightning Protection for Power Generation / Utilities
Power generation, fossil, solar and nuclear are typically constructed in large and unobstructed locations, making these systems susceptible to lightning strikes. We are the only company the in grounding industry that actively designs, installs, and verifies its total site and facility protection system.
Lightning Protection for Government & Military Facilities
Lightning Protection for Government & Military Facilities
Whether it’s munitions storage, communications, or asset storage and maintenance, there are no operations more sensitive to damage from lightning. Safety, security, remote locations all make for challenging implementation of Facility Protection Systems on military facilities. VFC/Lyncole has completed more successful projects for the US military than any other Facility Protection company. Both in the US and internationally, our team is ready to provide what your military facility requires.
Lightning Protection for Oil and Gas / Mining
Lightning Protection for Oil and Gas / Mining
Electronic VSDs are extensively utilized by the Mining and Oil & Gas industries for the speed control of electric motors. Modern VSDs are becoming ever more sensitive to surges and transient currents. Lyncole provides on-site detailed lightning hazard risk assessments where our engineers gather all necessary data, make necessary observations, run soil tests and interview appropriate on-site personnel to fully complete the risk mitigation and safety planning assessment.
Our Geography
We have VFC offices and representatives coast to coast in the United States, and distributors around the world.
