Heidelberg Materials North America has announced a definitive agreement to acquire Carver Sand & Gravel, the largest aggregates producer in the Albany, New York area. The acquisition includes four quarries, three sand and gravel pits, a trucking business, two asphalt plants, 70 million metric tons of reserves, and approximately 200 employees. Additionally, Heidelberg Materials and Carver Companies have formed a strategic partnership for land and marine logistics in the Albany area.
Carver Sand & Gravel, based in New York’s Capital Region, annually sells around 1.8 million metric tons of materials, with a capacity of up to 3 million metric tons.
