MAPEI Corp. (Deerfield Beach, Fla.) entered the concrete admixture market in the United States with the acquisition of General Resource Technology Inc. (GRT).
GRT's operating structure will remain intact, with GRT Vice President Travis Collins acting as general manager of the subsidiary and reporting directly to MAPEI Americas President and CEO Luigi Di Geso.
"We are very excited about bringing GRT into the MAPEI family," Di Geso said in a statement. "MAPEI Group has been in the admixture business for a long time globally, and GRT will certainly help us move forward in that market in the Americas."
GRT, founded in 1993, markets concrete admixtures and auxiliary products for the concrete industry in the central U.S. The company has production sites in Minneapolis and St. Louis.
