Rio Blanco Development is a startup in the emerging applied minerals production market and has been working hard to bring a 21st Century Green Approach to construction aggregates. We have developed a very competitive, scalable and environmental-friendly production process. Our strategy since 2002 has been focused on local production with a focus on bringing a positive economic presence to southeastern Tulare County. To accomplish our goals we have retrofitted a pilot facility and dedicated it to nanotechnology powder research in Terra Bella, California. This has helped us develop partnerships with large enterprises to introduce these high technology materials in new and diverse markets.
We aspire to produce a variety of materials used in construction, including specialty aggregates, clays and geo-polymeric cements. The company is also capable of providing services and products for civil engineering and highway maintenance.
We combine 21st century sustainable standards of production and common building materials to create innovative and Carbon-neutral materials.
