Lorusso Corporation

What Lorusso Corporation does

Lorusso Corporation is a privately held, vertically integrated construction materials producer and general contractor founded in 1963 and headquartered in Plainville, Massachusetts. The company operates three wholly owned production facilities in Eastern Massachusetts—Masslite Quarry (Plainville), Attleboro Sand & Gravel (Attleboro), and Norfolk Asphalt Co., Inc. (Norwood)—producing crushed stone, aggregates, bituminous concrete, recycled products, and soils/organics for federal, state, municipal, and private construction customers across Eastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

Its core product lines include quartzite crushed stone in multiple gradations, mason and C-33 washed sand, manufactured sand, dense graded base, bituminous concrete mixes (base, binder, road top, sidewalk top, driveway top, berm mix, emulsion, winter hot mix, cold patch), reclaimed pavement and recycled asphalt/concrete products meeting MassDOT specifications, and a soil/compost line fed by an organics-recycling facility using a Hogzilla 1000HP tub grinder that processes over 100,000 yards of material per year. Products are noted for durable quartzite composition and are qualified to MASSDOT, RIDOT, AREMA, AASHTO, and ASTM specifications. Service lines—paving and grading, roadway repair, utility trench preparation (up to 12" depth, 39"/48" widths), full construction, and recycling—are delivered with the company's own crews, creating a quarry-to-paving integration that supports turn-key project execution internally and external materials sales externally.

The business model is sales-led and transactional: materials are priced and billed by the ton, with pricing and order intake handled through direct sales (Extension 1222, [email protected]) and dispatch (Extension 1211), and a 24-hour advance-notice delivery convention. Revenue mixes commodity materials sales (aggregates and bituminous concrete), recycled product sales, and professional paving/construction services. Customer segments are split between Government Construction (federal/state/municipal contracts, primary) and Private Construction (commercial, residential, industrial, primary), with horizontal segmentation across both. The company operates an in-house recycling operation, participates in industry associations (MAAPA, UCANE, CIM, UMass Dartmouth UCARI), and maintains its profile as a regional, family/independent operator without disclosed external institutional ownership.

Direct peers

• Peckham Industries: Privately held, vertically integrated asphalt, aggregate, and paving-services producer operating multiple plants in the US Northeast - directly comparable to Lorusso's quarry + sand & gravel + asphalt + paving-service model.
• Granite Construction: Vertically integrated heavy-civil contractor that owns its aggregate reserves and asphalt plants, then self-performs paving - essentially the same vertical integration thesis as Lorusso at a larger scale.
• Sterling Infrastructure: E-infrastructure and transportation-infrastructure contractor with asphalt, paving, and materials operations; comparable business model combining materials production with construction services.
• Tilcon Connecticut (CRH subsidiary): New England aggregate and asphalt producer and paver operating quarries and plants in CT/MA/RI - one of Lorusso's direct regional competitors for MASSDOT and municipal work.
• Brox Industries: Massachusetts-based paving and construction materials company producing hot-mix asphalt and offering paving services across Eastern MA - tightest direct local competitor to Lorusso.
• A.A. Will Corporation: Massachusetts-based site-work, paving, and construction materials supplier serving the same Eastern MA geography - comparable materials-plus-services offering at similar regional scale.

Broad incumbents

• Vulcan Materials Company: Largest US producer of construction aggregates with significant asphalt-mix operations; competes in the same materials categories Lorusso serves but operates nationally rather than regionally.
• Martin Marietta Materials: National aggregates-led heavy-side building materials company with asphalt and paving operations; broad incumbent operating across the same product categories Lorusso supplies.
• CRH plc (Oldcastle Materials): Global building materials giant with a strong aggregates and asphalt footprint in the Northeast US through Oldcastle APG and Tilcon - directly competing at the regional level with Lorusso's plant footprint.
• Aggregate Industries (Holcim): Holcim's US construction materials arm producing aggregates, asphalt, and ready-mix concrete with direct presence in Massachusetts and the surrounding New England states.
