Tell City, Indiana, August 15, 2024 – Mulzer Crushed Stone, Inc., a CRH company, announced plans to begin construction on a phased expansion project at its largest limestone quarry in Leavenworth, Indiana. The project will modernize two processing plants and construct a new entry road, wash plant, support facilities and river barge loadout system. The multi-year project is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2027.
Once completed, aggregate production operations will be transformed at the company’s flagship location. These improvements will also result in a reduction of carbon emissions annually, reduced process waste and enhanced safety through traffic flow efficiencies.
“This investment represents our commitment to safety, operational excellence and environmental stewardship. The quarry transformation will enable us to provide our valued customers with a wider range of custom aggregate products and solutions across a five-state region. Furthermore, this will strengthen our position as the region’s leading supplier of building materials,” said Ken Mulzer, Jr., President of Mulzer Crushed Stone, Inc.
