Modern concrete structure

About AgriCrete

Our journey in revolutionizing concrete solutions began in the 1990s, leading to groundbreaking innovations in concrete treatment technology.

Our History

The AgriCrete journey began more than 20 years ago when a contractor specializing in saw-cutting dairy parlours encountered our products (under a different brand name) being used on a huge 100 x 300 foot bunker silo on a Hutterite farm in Alberta, Canada.

Once he understood the benefits our products provided, we discussed how treating the dairy parlours with our 2-product concrete protection system after saw-cutting would greatly help his customers.

During our discussions, he asked if we could package our products under a different brand name. At the time, our products were widely available through farming product retailers. He explained, "If the pails I have on site show your brand, my customers will just buy the products directly from the retailer rather than having us supply and install them."

I told him I could accommodate that request. I created and trademarked the brand AgriCrete, and purchased the AgriCrete.com website specifically for this purpose.

While we have supplied concrete solutions under our primary brand for almost 30 years, for the past 15 years we have exclusively supplied our AgriCrete-branded products to this single contractor in Canada.

We were attending this year's National Ag Show in Woodstock, Ontario in September 2024. We were in the booth of Farmers Depot, our Canadian farming products distributor.

It was there that we met Graham Crown from Agri Incinerator Systems, a company that had recently decided to distribute their products through Farmers Depot.

Graham explained that they already distribute their incineration systems across the US and Europe and were actively looking to expand their product range. He noted that our concrete treatment systems looked very interesting to them. In response, I mentioned that we had been supplying these systems to Canadian farmers for over 25 years under a different brand name, but that I also coincidentally owned the "AgriCrete" trademark and website.

As a result of this meeting, we decided to introduce our products under the AgriCrete brand to the distributors of Agri Incinerator Systems, beginning in January 2025 at the Pork Producers Show in Des Moines, Iowa.
