APAC-Atlantic

What APAC-Atlantic does

APAC-Atlantic, Inc. is a regional asphalt production and paving services company operating in Coastal Georgia and the Low Country of South Carolina. Founded around 1950 and previously known as Preferred Materials, the company runs three asphalt plants (Savannah GA, Midway GA, Hardeeville SC) and a home office in Savannah, producing hot mix asphalt (HMA), warm mix asphalt (WMA), Superpave and Marshall mix formulations, porous asphalt, and recycled asphalt mixes, alongside emulsion sales. It is a privately held subsidiary of CRH Americas Materials, the US arm of CRH plc (NYSE: CRH), operating within the Southern Atlantic Region of CRH's South Division, and benefits from CRH-owned aggregate facilities in South Carolina for upstream material sourcing. Sister-company relationships with Harrison Construction, Thompson Arthur, and Midsouth Aggregates extend the effective footprint beyond APAC's own plants.

The company serves three primary customer segments: state DOTs and government public works, private commercial and residential projects ranging from driveways to commercial parking lots, and independent paving contractors purchasing materials. Its go-to-market is direct sales via phone, a website project inquiry form, and industry association memberships (NAPA, SCAPA, GHCA, GAPA). Revenue is generated on a project-by-project, quote-based pricing model across asphalt material sales, paving services, project management, and aggregate reselling — none of which is publicly disclosed at the subsidiary level. Customer relationships are anchored by 70+ years of regional presence and DOT specification expertise rather than digital differentiation. AI, software platforms, and proprietary technology products are not present in the operating model; the company is a traditional construction materials business differentiated by plant footprint, parent-company procurement scale, and established regional relationships.
