Vulcan Materials Company

Vulcan Materials Company is a construction materials company headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama, with roots going back to 1909. Its shares trade on the NYSE under the ticker VMC. The company is among the components of the S&P 500.

Vulcan's main product is aggregates, meaning crushed stone, sand and gravel taken from quarries. Aggregates are a basic input for building roads, bridges and buildings, and because they are heavy they are usually sourced close to the construction site. The company also makes asphalt mix and ready-mixed concrete, and offers calcium products in Florida. Operations are concentrated in the southern, southeastern and western United States and serve public infrastructure projects as well as residential and commercial construction customers.

Because aggregate demand is linked to highway and infrastructure spending and building permit data, the company's results are read together with public infrastructure budgets and construction market indicators.
