THE COMPANY
We are aggregate producers. With our wits and with hard work we process what we dig from the ground and we change it into the house that you live in, the street that you drive on, the hospital that your children were born in. We create civilization by building systems to clean your water, carry away your waste, and transport your food.
Everything built by modern man depends on aggregates to lay a solid foundation, to provide structure, create shelter and provide security. We are custodians of our lands, where aggregate extraction is but a blink of an eye on a geologic time scale, we restore and enhance where we have taken resources. We are innovative thinkers, not doing exactly what others did before us, but improving old ideas, imagining new ones and dreaming of ideas yet to come. We are determined and do not back down from challenges.
We are lean; built of muscle and brain and steel. We are fair, both with those who rely on us and with those upon whom we rely. We are fathers, mothers, daughters and sons. We are community minded and have responded to those who have asked for our help. We are a proud private Canadian company.
