NRMCA Vice President, National Resources, Jon Hansen was the featured speaker at the Concrete Promotion Council of the Ozarks (CPCOZ) annual membership held recently in Springfield, MO. The members in attendance represented ready mix producers, cement suppliers and a Portland Cement Association promotion executive. The topics presented included a recap of single family housing starts, ready mix production per state per person, awareness of the Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) movement, NRMCA Design Assistance Program enhancements and other programs to help members secure more local yardage in 2014.

"Being one of the four affiliate associations NRMCA has in the state of Missouri, the CPCOZ membership is a great example of taking the NRMCA initiatives and putting them to work in their local market," said Hansen.
