Shaw Brothers Installs Astec 400-Ton Asphalt Plant at Its Headquarters

Jan. 4, 2014

After five years of manufacturing asphalt at our subsidiary’s location in Scarborough, Shaw Brothers has purchased and installed a new 400-ton Astec Asphalt Plant at our office headquarters in Gorham, Maine. Using the newest technology, an upsized bag house, and burning natural gas, this new plant will be the greenest plant in Maine. By burning natural gas and by locating it at Shaw Brothers’ headquarters, which includes a rock quarry, an enormous amount of trucking emissions will also be saved. With a 400-ton-per-hour production rate and four insulated storage silos, this plant will have the capacity to service all customers in Southern Maine with their choice of hot mix.
