About the company
Carbon Activated Corporation, a Subcontinent Asian American-owned, minority-owned small business manufacturer based in Compton, California, supplies activated carbon filtration products and water treatment solutions to federal agencies as a prime contractor (91% of recent awards), competing predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides and full-and-open procurement. The company operates as a Subchapter S Corporation and has held federal contracting relationships since 2001.
Carbon Activated Corporation's capability footprint centers on powdered and granulated activated carbon media, carbon filter rentals, and water treatment system maintenance. Representative work includes a $1.465 million single-award IDV with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Baltimore (running through September 2027) for repeated delivery of powdered activated carbon to the Washington Aqueduct in Washington, D.C., against which six delivery orders totaling $976 thousand have been placed; a $115,960 Total Small Business purchase order from the National Park Service Intermountain Region awarded in September 2026 for replacement of granulated activated carbon filter media at Mesa Verde and Rocky Mountain National Parks, with work completion by September 2027; and a $191,664 Total Small Business delivery order from the Washington Aqueduct for powdered activated carbon delivered by September 2026.
Customer concentration is heavy on Army Corps of Engineers work. The top five funding organizations account for 78% of recent awards by count and 97% by combined potential value, anchored by the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Baltimore (6 awards, $2.2 million combined potential value). The National Park Service Intermountain Region (4 awards, $268 thousand) and Army Materiel Command Joint Munitions Command (3 awards, $110 thousand) represent secondary customers. The Army Corps of Engineers Washington Aqueduct IDV (W912DR22D0010) is the dominant parent vehicle, carrying six task orders valued at $976 thousand; two additional Navy NAVSEA IDVs (N6247318D0202 and N6247322D1811) each carry one task order of undisclosed value.
Activity has been episodic rather than linear—one award in 2020, six in 2022, four in 2023, one in 2024, and three in 2026—with only $116 thousand in combined potential value reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, limiting near-term recompete exposure. In its subcontractor capacity, Carbon Activated Corporation provides environmental remediation and groundwater monitoring services to Trevet-Bay West Joint Venture LLC and Aptim Federal Services LLC. NAICS concentration runs to chemical product manufacturing (11 awards) and remediation services (3 awards); PSC coding emphasizes chemicals procurement and water treatment equipment maintenance and repair.
