Heidelberg Materials expands in New York with acquisition

Heidelberg Materials acquired the operating assets and reserves of RMS Gravel, a sand and gravel producer in central New York. 

According to Heidelberg, the acquired assets include a quarry with a fixed processing plant, five portable crushing plants and a material hauling business.

“The acquisition of RMS further strengthens our vertically integrated footprint in the growing central New York area,” says Alex Car, president of the Northeast region at Heidelberg Materials North America. “These assets are a great addition to our existing operations in this key market, and we expect a number of efficiencies and synergies as a result.”

Heidelberg Materials says the acquisition is consistent with its strategic plan, optimizing the company’s portfolio in core markets while strengthening its existing businesses through bolt-on acquisitions.
