Vulcan Materials, the national asphalt and read-mixed concrete production company, has sold its Sacramento-area facilities.<\/p>\n

On June 8, CalPortland Company announced it purchased the plants and Vulcan Materials mix-concrete assets, according to a company press release.<\/a> The production facilities are located in Rio Linda, Woodland and Elk Grove.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis strategic investment enhances our core capabilities, expands our reach, and reinforces our ability to deliver consistent performance and quality products in an evolving market,\u201d Hamblen said.<\/p>\n

CalPortland, which has its headquarters in Glendora, California, makes cement. Its parent company is Taiheiyo Cement, a Japanese company that bought CalPortland in 1990, its website reads.<\/a><\/p>\n
