Béton Provincial | ProDUct cataloGUE

As a native from Matane, Walter Bélanger was early interested in the business world and, at 20 years of age, he already owned a draft horse business. As a man of intuition, he understood that mechanics would soon replace horses. So, in April 1960, he acquired the Deschênes et Bernier Company, a concrete product manufacturer.

The company was renamed Béton Provincial Ltd. (BPL), a predestined name that reflects the ambition of its founder as well as the company’s expansion. As an out-standing achievement, Mr. Bélanger was prestigiously awarded the Order of Canada as well as the Ordre na-tional du Québec for all of his accomplishments, values, and ideals that contribute to enhancing Canada’s and Quebec’s profiles.

Béton Provincial promptly built and acquired numerous plants in Gaspésie, on the Côte- Nord, in the Lower St. Lawrence as well as in New-Brunswick. In 1973, Béton Provincial has been awarded a major contract and provided concrete for the Outardes -2 hydroelectric power station (Hydro- Québec). Such project required 260,000 cubic metres of concrete and marked a turning point in the company’s expansion. Furthermore, it was the first of many more contracts with Hydro-Québec to the present day: Manic- 5 (1985), SM- 3 (2000), Grand -Mère (2002), Eastmain- 1 (2005), Chute -Allard (2010), Rapide- des -Cœurs (2010), La Romaine (2014), to name only a few. But the company is not restricted to hydro-electricity: over the last few years, Béton Provincial elaborated numerous wind parks in the Lower St. Lawrence, in Gaspésie as well as in New-Brunswick.

André Bélanger who trained as a civil engineer and holds a MBA gladly joined the company in 1992. Béton Provincial extended its activities to Trois-Rivières, Drummondville, Saint-Hyacinthe, Sorel, Québec, Lévis, and Granby as well as in numerous plants in greater Montreal, the Laurentians as well as Montérégie. Such arrival was backed by a new advertising campaign: ‘‘L’Orange arrive en ville’’ (Translated freely into: The orange is coming to town), which is a nod to the origins and colors of Béton Provincial. It was also during such period that the company implemented its own terminal in the Port of Quebec City for the importation of cement powder. Meanwhile, Béton Provincial began operating a mixing station featuring a world-class technology used to manufacture custom-made cement. Béton Provincial cements meet all the CSA and ASTM Standards. Furthermore, thanks to its high-quality cement (low in alkalis), Béton Provincial is able to provide cost-effective cement solutions.>

The company also solidly established itself in the road-paving sector in the Lower St. Lawrence, in Gaspésie, on the Côte-Nord as well as in the Quebec City region. Moreover, it consolidated its presence in Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean. During that same period, Béton Provincial became a key player in the precast concrete sector through the implementation and acquisition of plants in Trois-Rivières. Furthermore, it significantly enlarged its plants in the eastern part of the province. Major projects include the Muskratt Falls one in Labrador, requiring over 500,000 cubic metres of concrete.

Béton Provincial offers a vast array of high-quality concrete products to meet even the most ambitious construction projects. Whether you need ready-mixed, precast, or asphalt concrete, crushed stone, and aggregate products, Béton Provincial distinguishes itself through excellence in service as well as modern, high-performance and long-lasting materials. This Quebec company is strong in eastern Canada with more than 75 ready-mixed concrete plants – inclu ding 15 portable plants, 17 asphalt concrete/paving plants, 5 precast concrete plants as well as a large number of quarries, gravel plants, and sand pits. To all that we can add an impressive fleet of over 450 concrete mixers as well as road transport equipment. Above all, the company’s success is based on its dynamic and experienced management team as well as its extraordinary staff of over 1,600 employees. Thanks to their customer caring and quality culture, they make the company a recognized leader and greatly contribute to Béton Provincial’s success.

TERCIMAlmost 10 million cubic metres of concrete have been manufactured using Tercim’s high quality cements. Tercim’s terminal produces high-performance cements that meet or exceed all the Canadian and US industry Standards, such as ASTM, CSA, and BNQ. These high-quality cements meet our northern conditions and are designed to suit all types of residential, com-mercial, industrial, mining, and energy projects.

Tercim also includes low-alkalis cements, which, in some areas, allow the use of local aggregates. For instance, Tercim offers the following types of cements:

› GUb-SF (Binary)› GUb-F/SF (Ternary)

Tercim is a fully Quebec-based and family-owned company.

Some examples of major projects › Canaport Methane Terminal,

St-John, New-Brunswick Complex concreting works of 70,000 cubic metres, from which 30,000 cubic metres were elaborated with cryogenic, waterproof concrete. Such concrete offers virtually no cracking risks; it is made from binary cement, contains no sicila fumes, and is designed to resist thermal shocks up to -169oC.

› Icône – Residential Projects, Montreal 28,000 cubic metres of Tercim cement mixture

for a high-performance concrete (between 35 and 65 MPA).

› Deepwater Sea Port, Pointe-Noire, Sept-Iles 25,000 cubic metres of concrete, from which 15,000

cubic metres are elaborated with Tercim cement with silica fumes in order to manufacture concrete piles that may go down to 100 m in water depth.

› Mc Innis Cement Factory, Port Daniel Concreting works with ternary cement in order

to elaborate nine 243-feet high silos made of waterproof and long-lasting concrete (continuous casting process).
