Since our founding in 1947 as a small, family-owned paving company in State College, Pennsylvania, HRI, Inc. has grown to become a major contractor working throughout the Commonwealth. Today, as a part of the large multi-national corporation Colas SA, we have the support of a global organization dedicated to all aspects of the road building industry. Our construction operations consist of asphalt paving, heavy and highway construction, structures, utilities and treatment plants, site work, and more. The majority of our construction projects are with PennDOT and local municipalities, but we also perform a significant amount of work for our private customers. We have the capabilities and expertise to complete a wide variety of projects, large or small. Our projects have included everything from multi-million dollar highway projects and large commercial site work, to emulsion application, recreational facilities, and parking lots. HRI's manufacturing facilities, which include six hot mix asphalt plants, provide a variety of bituminous products for numerous state and local agencies and private contractors, as well as our own projects. Supporting these construction and manufacturing operations are over 700 dedicated HRI employees and our fleet of more than 1,400 pieces of heavy construction equipment and trucks.
