We are thrilled to announce that on August 1, 2024, Prestressed Concrete Construction of Newton, Kansas, acquired Stress-Cast, Inc. of Assaria, Kansas, and its subsidiary, Dynamold. We are excited to welcome the Stress-Cast and Dynamold teams into the Prestressed family. Together, we will continue to build on the integrity and customer service legacy that has made all three companies successful.
This acquisition is more than a partnership between companies; it’s about helping craft professionals grow their careers and providing quality products to our customers. With this acquisition, Prestressed Concrete Construction will offer more resources, expanded benefits, and boundless opportunities.
Jim Markle, the current President of Stress-Cast, and his team will continue to serve as part of the Prestressed Concrete team. Stress-Cast specializes in producing hollow core concrete, while Dynamold focuses on casting beds, side molds, custom steel machinery, wire mesh for hollow core concrete, and trailers. Stress-Cast has a rich history, starting with Ernest Markle, who took over the business in the late 60s. Jim Markle and his son-in-law represent the third generation involved in the family-run operation. Over the years, Stress-Cast expanded its operations, including acquiring Dynamold in the mid-80s. Both Ernest and Jim have been influential members of the PCI Hollow Core Slab Producers Committee.
If you have any questions about this transition, please feel free to contact me, Brian Curtis, at (620) 202-3770. We are eager to discuss how Prestressed Concrete Construction can continue to serve you with enhanced capabilities and services.
