Amrize on April 15, 2026, expanded its “Made in America” cement label to four more plants, so the label is now offered at nine USA plants.
The plants
- New: Ada, Okla.; Alpena, Mich.; Joppa, Ill.; and Paulding, Ohio.
- Original five, from November 2025: Ste. Genevieve, Mo.; Midlothian, Texas; Devil’s Slide, Utah; Holly Hill, S.C.; and Portland, Colo.
Amrize says the label means every stage of the cement is made in the USA, from raw materials and processing to manufacturing. The company runs 13 USA cement plants. It plans $900 million in investments in 2026, including more production at Ste. Genevieve and Midlothian.
“As America’s builders prioritize domestic materials, our ‘Made in America’ label offers our customers the confidence of U.S. performance standards along with reliable supply at scale.”
Patrick Cleary, Senior Vice President of U.S. Cement and Supply Chain, Amrize
Why it matters for Made in USA
Cement is a key material in USA infrastructure, and Buy America rules for federally funded projects are pushing builders toward domestic materials. A company’s own origin label is a marketing claim, not a government certification. Still, it must meet the FTC’s standard that a product be all or virtually all made in the USA.
