Irving, Texas, Oct. 04, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lehigh Hanson, Inc. is pleased to announce the acquisition of JEV Recycling, Inc., a key recycler of concrete and asphalt with a large facility in Woodinville, Wash. With the addition of the JEV business, Lehigh Hanson continues to strengthen its portfolio of recycled materials in the Greater Seattle area to better meet the increasing need for more sustainable construction materials.
“The acquisition of JEV Recycling represents an important step for Lehigh Hanson as we grow our business beyond cement and aggregates while working to lower our environmental footprint,” said Chris Ward, President and CEO of Lehigh Hanson and Member of the Managing Board of Heidelberg Materials. “It also highlights the importance of finding innovative ways to serve the growing needs of our customers for responsibly sourced and circular products so they can meet the sustainability targets of their projects.”
