Our slag isn’t just a byproduct; it’s a smart solution for road systems and surfaces that need durability and grip. Our customers across Illinois and Missouri have numerous application uses for this quality material.

  • Chip and Seal Projects

    Road work greatly benefits from slag’s gritty surface, which improves long-term traction and slows wear over time.

  • Microsurfacing and Repaving Jobs

    Various projects rely on slag for texture and compaction during repaving, especially in high-traffic zones or weather-impacted areas.

  • De-icing Treatments

    Slag is an eco-friendlier grit alternative to traditional salt, effective even in extreme Midwest winters.
