🎂 "You order a cake from the baker, but the customer is asking — the cake should taste good, look good, smell good. And maybe it should also be sustainable."

That's how University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign’s Nishant Garg describes the challenge of crafting concrete for today's data centers. Thank goodness AI stepped in to help.

Together with our own Mark Bintzler and Meta's Julius Kusuma, the team built something genuinely new: concrete that's stronger, faster to cure, and better for the planet. And it's already winning awards. 🏆

We went to UIUC to hear the whole story. Take a look! 🎥

☀️ Summer means busier sites, higher heat, and more to watch out for — both on the job and at home. That's exactly why our teams came together this summer for Team UP for Safety.

359 events. Toolbox talks, safety drills, cookouts where the conversation turned to heat and hydration, even friendly competitions that made safety fun. More than 12,500 colleagues took part.

And it wasn't just at work — 453 kids submitted entries to our safety-themed colouring contest, because safety habits start at home too. 🎨

Thank you to everyone who participated, organized, and helped keep the conversation going this summer.

🎉Big congratulations for some big recognition! Our Aksana Engel-Draper and Mat Kavanagh have been named finalists for SiteMedia Magazine’s Top 40 Under 40.

Aksana credits resilience, ownership of her career path, and finding people who'll champion you. Mat points to collaboration, calculated risk, and having the freedom to chase ideas that might seem a little unconventional at first.

We're so proud of you both!

🚜 You're driving an eight-meter-long ready-mix truck. Now park it in a space barely longer than your vehicle.

That tiny tire? Pick it up with your giant bucket and set it down — gently — in an even tinier basket.

That's just another day at the Operator Challenge, where our RMX and Loader operators go head-to-head in obstacle courses built to test serious skill and precision.

This round's action took place in Calgary, and congratulations are in order for this round's winners! They're headed to the Greater Vancouver Area finals this fall.

Good luck to everyone competing — you make it look easy. (It is not easy.) 🏆

🏗️ "Fewer surprises, more predictability" — just one of our commitments to builders working under tight timelines.

Domenico D'Aqui — our President, East and Great Lakes, Aggregate Construction Materials — sat down with Rock to Road magazine to talk about what's changing in high-performance concrete, and why customizable mixes matter more than ever on complex projects.

His take: the best concrete solution isn't the one with the highest strength number. It's the one built around what a specific project actually needs, from spec to pour.

🏃 The Presque Isle 5K is not your average race route.

This year, approximately 60 runners took part in a course around the berm, screenhouse, dock, and heavy mobile equipment at the heart of our operations.

The event raised approximately $36,000 for the Alpena Cancer Center at My Michigan Medical Center Alpena, bringing total contributions to about $500,000 over 12 years.

Thank you to everyone who made this year’s race such a success.

🌊 What if your local park was also protecting your neighborhood from the next big storm?

That's exactly what's happening on Manhattan's East Side, where Project Area 1 of the "Big U" — known as the East Side Coastal Resiliency Project — is now open to the public.

New Yorkers are already enjoying new playgrounds, sports fields, picnic areas and open lawns. And underneath it all? A 2.4-mile flood barrier designed to protect more than 110,000 people from the kind of devastation Superstorm Sandy brought in 2012.

Amrize supplied the customized cement blends behind the project's flood walls, parks and pathways, plus our MAXtect™ ultra-high-performance concrete for one of its pedestrian bridges — engineered for strength, durability and longevity in one of the world's most demanding urban environments.

This is what it looks like when infrastructure gives people more room to live, gather, and enjoy their city. 🎥 Watch the video.

🌉 The Gordie Howe International Bridge is open, and daily life just got a little easier for 40,000 people crossing between Windsor and Detroit.

It's the longest cable-stayed bridge in North America — six lanes, 1.6 miles (2.5 kilometers), built to last 125 years.

Getting there took 49,000 cubic yards of concrete made with our custom cement blends, plus a lot of partnership along the way. With SRM Concrete and Bridging North America, our team kept quality and supply consistent across 700-foot towers and every mile of the build — even when industry standards changed mid-project.

Built to move people and trade for generations to come.

"Amrize was the clear partner of choice for this project. Working with the team felt like working with a family."

Thank you, Liany Mariño! We greatly appreciated working with Southland Holdings on the Mill Creek Drainage Relief Tunnel, too.

Together, we're building a 5.3-mile, four-story-wide underground system designed to hold 160 million gallons of stormwater before it reaches Dallas homes, streets, and businesses.

With so much at stake, a tight partnership was essential. See how, as Liany says, it made all the difference 👇

🏔️ 🌊 🏙️ Vancouver is a beautiful place to work. It’s even better when you can walk around knowing you helped build it.

Meet Paul Kowalewski. He runs our Richmond Cement plant — and when he takes his family to Science World, he gets to point up and say, "We provided the concrete that holds that dome up!"

That's a pretty great feeling. And for Paul and his colleagues across our Richmond and Kent Avenue Ready-Mix plants, Science World is just the start. ⬇️
