BURNCO Rock Products Ltd (BURNCO) is a fourth generation family business established in Calgary by James F. Burns in 1912. Today, BURNCO operates over sixty locations in Alberta, British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Colorado and Texas. BURNCO produces high quality aggregates, paving asphalt and ready mix concrete and also operates a network of retail landscape centres.
Since 1912, BURNCO has operated on a number of sites which now blend seamlessly into the Calgary landscape. Some of these sites include Nose Hill Park, Manchester, Highfield, and Riverbend among others. A highlight is Carburn Park. Officially dedicated in September 1986, Carburn Park is a testimonial to what can be achieved when government, industry and residential communities work together.
