Polycor Inc. has continued its growth with the acquisition of Elliott Stone Co. Inc., a quarrier and fabricator of Indiana limestone based in Bedford, Ind. The acquisition expands the ability for Polycor to deliver a comprehensive offering of natural stone building products for the hardscapes and masonry industry.
“We are excited to bring Elliott Stone’s technologies, processes and industry know-how into the Polycor family,” says Matt Howard, president of Polycor West. “This is truly an exciting time for Polycor as our business continues to grow, not only from a product offering standpoint, but from an innovation and experience perspective as well.”
Beginning immediately, Polycor will execute the planned integration of the two companies’ facilities, customers and employees to ensure a transition that will deliver value for all partners and stakeholders.
Brian Elliott of Elliott Stone says the acquisition represents an exciting chapter for the family-owned business. “Elliott Stone has a long and proud heritage that we take great pride in, so as part of this transition we wanted to find someone who shared our same principles and values,” states Elliott. “Polycor has an unmatched reputation in the industry and I’m confident our synergies will contribute to the overall success of the business.”
Founded in 1957, Elliott Stone Co. has a history of being a forward-thinking company. In fact, the company is unique among limestone quarriers as the bulk of their material comes from an underground quarry. This allows for continuous operation even in inclement or winter weather, allowing the company to meet customer demand for limestone on schedule all year.
