APAC Shears has been a cornerstone in the construction industry for over a century, dedicated to 'Building the Heartland from the Ground Up.' Established in 1874 by George Shears in Hutchinson, Kansas, the company has evolved significantly from its early beginnings, where it initially focused on building infrastructure in its hometown. By the early 1900s, APAC began making significant strides in the construction sector, laying the first concrete sidewalk in Hutchinson in 1900 and operating its first asphalt plant by 1922. Over the years, the company has expanded its reach and capabilities, becoming a trusted supplier of aggregate materials, hot mix asphalt, ready-mix concrete, and more.
APAC Shears continually prioritizes quality and safety across all its operations, serving a diverse clientele that includes contractors, municipalities, and government agencies throughout Kansas. Their long-standing commitment to environmental sustainability is evident in their recycling initiatives, which contribute to the asphalt industry's status as America's number one recycler.
The company has received multiple accolades, including quality and safety awards from various industry organizations, underscoring its reputation as a leader in construction efficiency and innovation. Today, APAC Shears employs a skilled workforce that is dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of safety and quality while delivering exceptional construction services.
As part of Oldcastle Materials Group, owned by CRH plc in Dublin, Ireland, APAC Shears stands poised to continue its long legacy of excellence in materials supply and construction services, adapting to the evolving needs of the industry while fostering a culture of safety and community engagement.
