Recycled concrete

The Quikrete Companies announces
a joint venture with Charah Dry
Mix LLC to manufacture and distribute
selected products under the Quikrete
brand. Charah Dry Mix is a recent
spin-off from Charah Inc., a leading ash
management provider for the coal-fired
electric utility industry based in Louisville,
Ky. Charah Dry Mix produces
a patent-pending concrete mix made
with bottom ash, a material produced by
coal-burning utilities that is recycled as
a concrete aggregate.
“The joint venture with Quikrete
will leverage Charah’s innovation in bottom
ash recycling,” said Charles Price,
president and CEO of Charah, Inc.
“We are fortunate to find such a strong
partner as Quikrete to share our vision
of conserving our natural resources through recycling.”
Quikrete will package all bottom
ash products with Charah’s patent-pending
two-handled plastic bag, making the
products easy to lift and carry.
