Silvi Cement, a division of Silvi Materials, is significantly expanding its distribution network for cementitious materials, reinforcing the company’s position as one of the most reliable suppliers of high-quality construction materials in the Eastern United States.
Silvi has officially opened a temporary cement rail loadout facility at the deep-water port of Morehead City, North Carolina, 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. 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. This opening marks an important milestone in Silvi Materials’ ongoing investment in the Southeast market.
Additionally, Silvi is 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. Designed to handle over 250,000 tons per year, the facility will play a critical role in serving the growing demand across the Midwest.
Until the domes at Morehead City are completed, both terminals will be supplied directly by rail from Silvi Materials’ flagship cement terminal in Bristol, Pennsylvania—one of the largest cement import terminals in North America, with three domes and a total capacity of 165,000 metric tons. This scale provides the foundation for unmatched reliability in supplying new and existing markets.
Silvi Materials’ growing network of terminals, anchored by 40 years of experience in cement distribution, ensures end users have access to the highest-quality cement. Imported from leading global suppliers, Silvi’s type I/II cement is naturally low in total alkalis and processed to exact specifications by utilising some of the newest and most advanced cement plant equipment in the world. This combination of scale, expertise, and supply chain integrity delivers cement with superior strength and faster set times, providing consistent, reliable performance across demanding applications, especially the high-rise, highway, and warehouse building segment.
“Our geographic expansion represents the next step in Silvi Materials’ long-term growth strategy,” said Laurence J. 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.”
The addition of these terminals continues Silvi Materials’ multi-year effort to expand its geographic footprint, diversify its product mix, and strengthen logistics capabilities. Together with its ready-mix, aggregate, and cement operations, Silvi Materials now serves a broad and growing customer base across the Mid-Atlantic, Northeast, and Southeast.
Silvi Materials, headquartered in Fairless Hills, PA, was established in 1947 and is a vertically integrated company in the ready-mix concrete, sand mining, stone mining, slag and cement business.
