MISSION:
Create and grow sustainable value through the application of best practices in mining and yard waste recycling. It is our commitment to protect the health and wellbeing of our employees and the environment within the communities we work.
Striving to provide benefit to our communities, always be environmentally diligent, and pledge to restore our lands for generations that follow.

Thelen Sand and Gravel has been a leading manufacturer of quality construction materials since 1947. We have always valued long standing relationships with our customers as well as the communities in which we reside. Starting with one location in Antioch, IL, Thelen Sand and Gravel has now grown to multiple locations throughout Northeastern Illinois and Southeastern Wisconsin while serving the aggregate and organics industries. As our founder, Vern Thelen adhered to in the beginning and what is still adhered to now, the Thelen philosophy is to remain “Small enough to know our customers and large enough to take care of their needs.”
