In 1980, Oldcastle Inc., a subsidiary of CRH plc, a leading international manufacturer and supplier of
building materials, acquired the 5 Utility Vault plants in the western United States.
Today, with more than 80 locations, Oldcastle Precast is the largest precast concrete manufacturer in the
United States. Utility Vault recently replaced its local trade name with its corporate name, Oldcastle Precast.
To meet demand and provide the highest quality product, Oldcastle Precast’s Pleasanton location is situated
on 27 acres with approximately 30,000 sq. ft. of precast production space under roof. The production facility
includes a state-of-the-art computerized batch plant, 3 overhead bridge cranes with capacities ranging from 5
to 15 tons and a 60-ton shuttle lift. We can produce products weighing up to 120,000 pounds.
Over 100 products may be produced in any one day. Products are manufactured using a mix design that typically reaches
strengths of over 5,500 psi in 7 days. Many products can even be shipped the next day.
All precast concrete products are manufactured under a strict quality control program. Concrete is tested daily in our
fully equipped quality-control lab.
We have 13 crane trucks with lifting capacities of up to 30,000 pounds, and we deliver and offload products throughout
California and Nevada.
