ATLANTA -- (Business Wire)

CRH Americas Materials has announced that it has acquired the assets of Western Rock Resources and Columbia Northwest Recycling (together, “WRR & CNR”). The acquisition will provide CRH with additional aggregate reserves to support its long-term strategy in the Pacific Northwest, including Northwest Oregon, where economic activity is driving construction demand.

Headquartered in Woodburn, Oregon, WRR & CNR operate four active quarries along the I-5 corridor, backed by high-quality aggregate reserves which significantly enhance CRH’s ability to meet long-term customer demand across the Portland and Salem metropolitan areas and the greater Willamette Valley.

The businesses complement CRH’s existing Oregon operations and connected business model by supplying aggregates for asphalt, ready mixed concrete and construction applications, while adding construction materials recycling capabilities for customers in the Northwest Oregon infrastructure market.

“The Pacific Northwest continues to benefit from a diverse and expanding economy and significant infrastructure investment,” said Jason Jackson, President, CRH Americas Materials. “Western Rock Resources’ and Columbia Northwest Recycling’s reserves, strategic locations and strong safety culture make them an excellent fit for our Oregon business and will enhance our ability to serve customers across the Portland and Willamette Valley areas and into southwest Washington. We look forward to building on their success and continuing to deliver outstanding service to customers throughout the region.”
