We are Prairie Materials, one of the area’s top providers of ready-mix concrete plants and aggregates used to support new construction, modernization, and infrastructure improvements in Illinois and Indiana.
Established in 1948, we offer a full line of ready-mixed, decorative, and high-performance concrete, and a full range of aggregate products. From our very first yards in Bridgeview, Illinois, we’ve expanded steadily to become one of the region’s foremost providers to the construction industry and to agricultural customers in the Midwest.
In 2008, we became part of Votorantim Cimentos, one of the world’s leading providers of building materials and sustainable solutions, establishing their presence in North America. Today, we operate as part of Votorantim Cimentos North America (VCNA). This association allows us to continue our legacy of supplying quality products, services, and technical expertise to local markets, backed by the strength of an international industry leader.
Together, we are part of people’s lives, constantly evolving and transforming the world.
