Asphalt Specialties Company Inc. (ASCI) is a family-owned heavy highway contractor based in Colorado, with over 30 years of experience in the construction industry. Founded in 1991 by Daniel W. Hunt, the company originally set out to achieve modest growth but has evolved into a significant player in the heavy highway sector due to the increasing demand spurred by Denver's construction boom. As of today, ASCI operates as an integrated contractor that not only executes various construction tasks but also produces essential materials such as aggregates, concrete, and asphalt products. The company manages its own four sand and gravel mining operations, three asphalt plants, and multiple recycling sites, which can operate both on and off-site, providing flexibility and efficiency in the services offered.
ASCI’s extensive service portfolio includes sub-grade preparation, overlays, and asphalt paving tailored for residential, industrial, and commercial projects. To ensure high quality and consistency, the company maintains a fully staffed quality control department equipped with a laboratory that caters to the evolving needs of its clientele. Currently, ASCI employs around 300 professionals and manages a fleet of over 200 pieces of heavy-highway equipment, actively overseeing eight to ten major construction projects at any given moment. With annual revenues nearing $80 million, ASCI has successfully demonstrated its commitment to providing exceptional service while actively contributing to the Colorado construction landscape. Under the lasting vision and entrepreneurial spirit of its principal owner Dan Hunt, Asphalt Specialties continues to thrive and expand its reach in the construction industry.
