Hills Materials Upgrades South Dakota Asphalt Plant

Hills Material Co., Spearfish, S.D., has recently upgraded its facilities by constructing a new Gencor Industries asphalt plant, according to a report in the Black Hills Pioneer (Spearfish, S.D.).

The plant can yield 300 tons per hour or up to 3,000 tons per day. It can also use recycled asphalt and will eventually be able to use recycled oil, according to the report.

The company will put the new plant to work on the Old Belle Highway construction project that will widen the road’s shoulders and include asphalt overlay.
