BURNCO ROCK PRODUCTS LTD IS A FOURTH GENERATION FAMILY BUSINESS ESTABLISHED IN CALGARY IN 1912 BY JAMES F. BURNS.
BURNCO Rock Products Ltd has operations spanning Western Canada, Texas and Colorado.
BURNCO has over 1,100 employees (180 in BC) and is Canada’s largest independent ready-mix concrete and aggregate company. BURNCO’s BC operations currently transport sand and gravel by barge from Sechelt, Treat Creek (northwest of Powell River), and as far away as Port McNeil on northern Vancouver Island to existing facilities along the Fraser River in Burnaby and Langley.
Sand and gravel is used to help meet the local demand of approximately 30 million tonnes of aggregate in the BC Lower Mainland each year.
The BURNCO Aggregate Project is being proposed and designed to meet continued demand while developing this non-renewable resource in an environmentally sound manner.
