From the United States' largest domed structure to what will be one of its biggest Class A technology and industrial parks, it's no exaggeration that everything is bigger in Texas.
That goes for Amrize's presence there, too, says Steve Lewis, VP of operations for our customer, Miller Sierra. "Amrize is probably the biggest supplier," he shares. "That also makes them one of the best. If you need a lot of concrete, call them up. They'll do a good job."
Amrize supplied Miller Sierra's $45-million Fort Worth high school project with cement from its Midlothian plant-along with the full concrete supply. It's one of many Texas landmarks the facility has helped build. With more than 150 employees producing 2 million metric tons of cement each year, Midlothian is behind a surprising number of places where Texans live, work, learn and connect.
Join us on a tour of Texas and the materials behind some of its most iconic and popular locations.
COMPLETED PROJECTS THAT ARE ALREADY FAN FAVES
AT&T Stadium: A Texas-sized venue
When the Dallas Cowboys needed a new home, they aspired to create the finest venue of its kind. AT&T Stadium takes engineering to new heights with myriad firsts and record-breaking features
Location: Arlington, TX
What Amrize Provided: Concrete for the foundation perimeter walls (15,000 cubic yards)
Completion: 2009
Few destinations capture Texas's ambition like AT&T Stadium. Home to the Cowboys and host to concerts, championship games and national events, the 80,000 to 100,000-seat venue is an engineering marvel.
Amrize supplied approximately 15,000 cubic yards of concrete for the stadium's perimeter foundation walls. These massive partitions help the stadium sit 50 feet below street level-holding back the surrounding soil and keeping the entire structure stable.
Fun fact: The Dallas Cowboys were the first sports team valued at $5 billion, making this stadium a true Texas-sized destination.
Perot Museum: 'The boldest piece of modern architecture to hit Dallas'
Designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Thom Mayne of Morphosis, the Perot Museum is a 180,000-square-foot Dallas landmark showcasing engineering and technology in action.
Location: Dallas, TX
What Amrize Provided: Grey cement to achieve the non-pigmented, striated facade panels (2,400 tons) and high-performance concrete driven by LEED (23,000 cubic yards)
Completion: 2020
Drawing approximately one million visitors annually, the Perot Museum of Nature and Science is one of Dallas's most beloved destinations. It's also one of its most architecturally ambitious. The Dallas Morning News called it the "boldest piece of modern architecture to hit Dallas" when it was completed.
The striking façade features 700 precast concrete panels made with Midlothian cement that mimic the natural striations of rock. Amrize's high-recycled material mixes also support the walls, piers and cantilevered beams. What results is a LEED Gold-certified structure that's as interesting as its exhibits.
Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge: A signature of the Dallas skyline
Designed by internationally celebrated architect Santiago Calatrava, the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge features a 400-foot steel arch with 58 radiating cables.
Location: Dallas, TX
What Amrize Provided: Amrize cement
Completion: 2012
Stretching across the Trinity River with its unmistakable 400-foot center arch, the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge has become a modern symbol of Dallas's momentum. Designed by internationally acclaimed architect Santiago Calatrava, Amrize supplied cement from its Midlothian facility to support the construction of the bridge.
The structure combines elegance with engineering innovation, linking the Woodall Rodgers Freeway to West Dallas and improving access across neighborhoods. Since opening in 2012, it has spurred economic revitalization, attracting residents and visitors to destinations such as Trinity Groves.
Hunt Oil Headquarters: Bending architectural expectations
The sail and ellipse facade of Hunt's 480,000 square-foot headquarters features glass that is curved from top to bottom.
Location: Dallas, TX
What Amrize Provided: High-performance concrete for the elevated structure
Completion: 2007
Hunt Oil's headquarters, located at the gateway to downtown Dallas, features a striking glass sail and an energy-efficient design.
Amrize supplied the cement and concrete, which not only provided structural strength and support during construction but also helped reduce the building's embodied carbon. As a result, this headquarters has become a modern city icon.

Top of the class: Passport Park West aims to be the biggest of the best for tech and industrial customers
Amrize's Chairman and CEO, Chief Marketing Officer, and Building Materials President visit Passport Park, a massive 180-acre industrial development featuring seven buildings in total.
Amrize supplied Phase 1 of the Passport Park project, comprising three large-scale buildings.

Amrize supplied materials for Phase 1, helping support the growth of tech, logistics and manufacturing tenants in North Texas.
Interstate 635 East: One of Texas's 'most congested' gets a mobility overhaul
The I-635 East project is a $1.74 billion design-build upgrade along Interstate 635, a partial loop around Dallas connecting communities, businesses and commuters across the region.
Location: Dallas County, TX
What Amrize Provided: Cement (approximately 60,000 tons)
Estimated completion: 2028
I-635 East is one of the busiest corridors in Dallas County, carrying more than 200,000 vehicles every day. Major reconstruction of this 5.4-mile stretch of interstate 635 is underway to improve mobility, operations and safety.
Amrize's Midlothian cement is helping provide the durable, long-lasting roadway needed to keep Dallas-Fort Worth moving, including the full reconstruction of US-80 east of Belt Line Road, widening lanes, and replacing four flyovers while adding four more.
Midlothian cement plant: Made in Texas for Texans
