About Us
For more than 100 years, Pine Bluff Materials has produced and distributed high-quality sand and gravel via barge on the Ohio, Tennessee and Cumberland river systems. Since our founding in 1913, we’ve expanded operations to incorporate six strategically located distribution yards – earning an impressive reputation for efficiency and dependability along the way. We have always stayed committed to our core beliefs that we are more than just the products we offer. While quality and service are the main focuses to bringing our customers the best experience possible, we always strive to go further and support our communities, our employees and the environment.

Community Involvement
Pine Bluff Materials is proud to participate in the annual River Discovery Center Dragon Boat Race, with proceeds supporting elementary educational programming for the River Discovery Centers in downtown Paducah, KY. An elite team of 28 people – employees and their spouses – compete against approximately 30 local teams to raise money for the museum.
This event has been a huge success for the Discovery Center’s education outreach program to teach school children about the role the country’s various rivers play in each of our lives. The winning team takes home a trophy from the event, along with river industry bragging rights.
