Silvi Cement, a division of Silvi Materials, opened a temporary cement rail loadout facility at the deepwater port of Morehead City, North Carolina.
The facility is now fully operational and available for both pickup and delivery.
In addition, Silvi is constructing a new cement import terminal in Morehead City, with an expected opening date of 2027. The company says it will be equipped with two 100,000-ton domes for Type I/II low-alkali cement and Grade 120 slag. The terminal will feature 24/7 truck loading capabilities and direct rail loadout.
Silvi is also set to open a second large-scale, rail-served cement distribution facility in central Ohio in spring 2026. The Ohio terminal will sell Type I/II low-alkali cement and Grade 120 slag, with round-the-clock loading capacity. The facility will handle more than 250,000 tpy.
Both terminals will be supplied directly by rail from Silvi Materials’ cement terminal in Bristol, Pennsylvania, until the domes at Morehead City are completed.
“Our geographic expansion represents the next step in Silvi Materials’ long-term growth strategy,” says Laurence Silvi II, co-president of Silvi Materials. “From our recent acquisition of Eagle Rock Concrete in North Carolina to the opening of these new cement terminals, every move we make is focused on one goal: providing our partners with the highest-quality materials, delivered with the reliability Silvi Materials is known for.”
