Custom Concrete bought Parnell Concrete Products in Timmins, establishing a regional office off Riverside Drive, including a concrete block plant, a large aggregate deposit, and a construction supply business. The same year, Custom purchased its first portable ready-mix plant, the AssinckOne. It is mobilized in Timmins at the Dougwall site to supply 100,000 yards of concrete for the new Kidd Creek Smelter site. This was the first of many portable concrete plants we would use to perform projects in the far North of Ontario for mining, infrastructure, pulp and paper, and lumber sites.
