Heartland Paving Partners

Heartland Paving Partners is a commercial paving group, listed in Glen Ellyn, Illinois, that brings together a number of regional asphalt and concrete contractors across the Northeast and Midwest. Its footprint runs between Minnesota and Upstate New York, and its focus is pavement maintenance and rehabilitation for commercial properties.

The group's core services are sealcoating, pavement repair, and asphalt and concrete paving. It operates on a self-perform model, meaning its own crews carry out the work rather than subcontracting it, which the company presents as a way to control quality, schedules and budgets. Safety and ADA accessibility are named as priorities on its projects.

Member companies include ACI Asphalt & Concrete, Asphalt Solutions Indy, Garden State Pavement Solutions, S&K Asphalt and Concrete, Klekamp & Company, Professional Paving & Concrete, Poblocki Paving, Macadam Company and Heartland Paving Solutions. The group cites more than three decades of commercial paving experience.

Its customers cover a broad range of property types: retail centers, office buildings, industrial sites and warehouses, apartments, homeowners associations, retirement communities, medical facilities, schools and universities, places of worship, parks, private roads, municipal properties and airports.

Its financial sponsor is Soundcore Capital Partners, a New York private equity firm that makes control investments in mostly founder-owned businesses. The group is still acquiring paving companies in both regions, and its leadership includes former owners and executives from the industry.
