In 1949 J. M. "Bill" Harper founded Harper Construction, which eventually expanded operations to become Harper Industries. If Harper Industries can't help you get it built, not many can. The company operates a group of subsidiaries that provide a full range of construction services and products including design-build, project management, facilities maintenance, and construction materials and equipment. It serves commercial, power, and government clients for projects ranging from manufacturing plants and office buildings to schools and highways and bridges.

HeidelbergCement AG has operations in 40 countries in Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America. Subsidiary Hanson is a top building materials company in the UK. HeidelbergCement believes in concrete results. The company is one of the world's leading producers of cement and clinker (more than 100 million tons annually), and concrete; it is the largest cement producer in Germany. Cement, concrete, and aggregates together account for more than 90% of the company's sales. HeidelbergCement also has group services which manage fossil fuels and electricity for its operations and trade internationally in cement and clinker (an intermediate product used to make portland cement).

Holcim (Australia) produces aggregate, cement, asphalt, and concrete block and pipe. The company operates more than 240 concrete plants and about 80 hard rock, sand, and gravel quarries in Australia. Its Humes division manufactures steel-reinforced concrete pipes and other precast concrete products. Mexican cement giant CEMEX acquired Rinker Group in 2007 for more than $16 million and renamed it CEMEX Australia. The hefty price tag sent CEMEX into massive debt, though, and the parent began selling off assets. In 2009 CEMEX sold the unit to rival Holcim, which has targeted Australia as a growth market.

Holcim entered the Canadian market in 1951 as St. Lawrence Cement with the commissioning of a cement plant near Quebec City. Since then, through ongoing capital investment and strategic acquisitions such as Associated Quarries & Construction (1961), Dufferin Construction Company (1961), De-Mix (1965), H. Boehmers (1973), and TCG Asphalt & Construction (2001), the company has grown into one of the largest vertically integrated building materials and construction companies in Canada , recording sales of over $1.3 billion in 2008. In 2009, St. Lawrence Cement became Holcim (Canada) Inc., introducing the parent company name in Canada. We are a member of the Holcim Group, a global company employing some 85,000 people, with production sites in over 70 countries. With a market presence on every continent, Holcim Group is more globally spread than any other building materials company. The Holcim Group business strategy is based on continuous growth in both developed economies and emerging, high-growth markets.
