Who We Are
A family operated manufacturer of longer wear life parts for asphalt plants and construction machinery.
We specialize in solving wear problems that cause unnecessary equipment downtime. Our parts are engineered to save money by eliminating future replacement cycles of new parts, and to reduce labor costs.
We are proud to be the designers, engineers and manufacturers of our products, which ensures the utmost quality. In addition, our sales force is made of “applications engineers” who don’t just sell a product, they sell a service. Our customers’ needs are our top priority, and our goal is to save them time, effort and money!
An Example
Kenco has worked with Preferred Materials, Inc. since January 2017; Sold Drag Slat Conveyor Floor liners.
We Enhance Quality
Anthony Marcucci, the regional production manager for Preferred Materials, shared: “In 2019, we were approaching a major plant maintenance project with a drag conveyor rebuild. We weighed options on several products available to the market and ended up pulling the trigger on a full Kenco liner replacement in our Astec drag.
“Traditionally, we would be rebuilding our drag conveyor every four years but with Kenco’s eight-year, 5-million-ton warranty, we were able to double the life of our drag floor. Going to Kenco allowed us to eliminate an entire rebuild on an extremely taxing and dangerous maintenance project, which allowed us to keep our employees safer and plants running longer.
“That floor is still in place at our Tampa asphalt plant with over 2.5 million tons of granite across it and showing only 25% wear.”
