Construction
& Materials
We build what connects us today — and what moves us forward tomorrow.
From quarries to job sites, our companies design, produce and deliver the materials and solutions that keep communities moving.
Why Our Work Matters
Building a Legacy of Progress
Our work begins where the rubber meets the road — literally. Through our portfolio of companies, including Heritage Construction + Materials (HC+M) and FORTA, we design, produce, build and strengthen the infrastructure that keeps communities connected and commerce moving.
What started as a small investment in materials and hauling grew into a trusted transportation infrastructure network. Each step built on the last — asphalt plants, quarries and construction companies working together to build from the ground up.
Today, we’ve built a fully integrated system that allows us to innovate, test and deliver at every stage — from the first stone to the final mile.
Our Cornerstone
Heritage Construction + Materials (HC+M) brings together industry leaders with complementary strengths across the infrastructure lifecycle along with FORTA, a pioneer in fiber reinforcement systems. Together, they connect materials, production, sustainable innovation and on-the-ground construction expertise to deliver integrated solutions that move people and progress forward.
Across the Midwest and beyond, our companies are building safer, longer-lasting infrastructures: one road, one bridge, one project at a time.

Our Products
Extending Pavement Life from the Bottom Up
Premature joint failures shorten pavement life and drive up repair costs. J-Band® Void Reducing Asphalt Membrane (VRAM) solves this problem from the bottom up. Its polymer-modified formula reduces air voids and prevents water damage at the longitudinal joint creating longer lasting, safer roads.
Protecting Rail Infrastructure for the Long Haul
Sun and rain weaken wood rail ties over time. Tietan™ is a patented asphalt-based coating that shields ties from moisture and UV rays, to extend service life and protect rail infrastructure.
