NRMCA's celebration of the 100th anniversary of ready mixed concrete in the U.S. continues in E-NEWS this week with the histories of another Producer and Associate member. See below for the two companies we've selected this week, along with a link to that company's respective Web site for more information. This week's industry milestone: The Grand Coulee Dam, using nearly 12 million cubic yards of concrete, opened in 1941, two years ahead of schedule.

Chandler Concrete Company - Chandler Concrete was founded as a concrete contracting firm just after World War II by R.F Kirkpatrick. In 1973, Tom Chandler purchased the ready mix business from Kirkpatrick and Chandler Concrete Company has continued as family owned and operated for over 38 years. In March 2006, Chandler Concrete acquired Marshall Concrete Products, extending its service areas into Virginia and the southern part of West Virginia. This partnership provides the manufacturing of a new hardscapes division, Grotto Hardscapes.  Chandler Concrete completes hardscape options for builders and homeowners throughout North Carolina, Virginia, Southern West Virginia and Eastern Tennessee.

The concept of the Concrete Mobile was simple; it was designed to separately hold the materials necessary to produce concrete and to volumetrically measure and mix the materials on site or as needed.
