Carotex, Inc.
About Us
Carotex, Inc. began operations in April 1984 under
the direction of Clyde Adams. The site was previously
Rainbow Shipyard and has always been used as a
barge cleaning facility. Carotex no longer operates a
drydock but still does topside repairs. Our major
focus is barge cleaning and gas freeing.
