Silvi Cement announced an expansion of its distribution network for cementitious materials. In addition to the inauguration of a temporary rail loading facility at the Port of Morehead City, North Carolina, which is already fully operational and available for pickup and delivery, it is building a new cement import terminal at the same deep-water port, with an inauguration scheduled for 2027.
The future terminal will include two 100,000-ton domes for low-alkali Type I/II cement and Grade 120 slag, with capacity for 24/7 truck loading and direct rail loading.
The Silvi Materials division is also developing a large-scale cement distribution plant with rail service in central Ohio, with an inauguration scheduled for spring 2026.
Until the new domes in Morehead City are completed, both terminals will be supplied by rail from Silvi’s flagship cement terminal in Bristol, Pennsylvania, one of the largest cement import terminals in North America, which features three domes with a total capacity of 165,000 metric tons.
“Our geographic expansion represents the next step in Silvi Materials’ long-term growth strategy. From the acquisition of Eagle Rock Concrete in North Carolina to the opening of these new terminals, every step we take is focused on providing our partners with the highest quality materials, delivered with the reliability that characterizes Silvi,” said Laurence J. Silvi II, co-chairman of Silvi Materials.
Founded in 1947 and headquartered in Fairless Hills, Pennsylvania, Silvi Materials is a vertically integrated company in the ready-mix concrete, sand mining, stone mining, cement, and slag business.
