New 2023 Sustainability Report available now!

Over five years ago, Acme Brick Company began developing a new Strategic Framework with a spotlight shining on Acme’s future. We have had more than 130 years of success as a high volume manufacturer and distributor of brick, but in order to achieve our vision – to be THE trusted materials solution for enduring beauty, safety, and strength in building communities - we needed to evolve. 

This Framework focuses on People, Processes, and Markets. 

  • PEOPLE Build a strong culture and build rewarding careers for all Associates. Work as One Team to cultivate empowerment, trust, high performance, and diversity. Attract and retain talented individuals, and make every Associate feel like Acme’s Greatest Asset. 

  • PROCESSES Harness the experience, expertise, teamwork, ownership, and creativity of our Associates to Embrace Improvement, support continual innovation, and instill process excellence in serving our customers. 

  • MARKETS Earn Lifetime Customers by leveraging the talents of Acme Associates, the strength of the Acme brand, and Acme’s ability to create innovative and diverse building materials/solutions to fulfi ll our customers’ needs - and by continuously improving our customer experience. 

The Framework is supported by four Pillars of Success: Make Acme a Great Place to Work; Support and Strengthen our Communities; Provide Industry-leading Customer Service; and Exceed Profit Goals. We measure our progress by setting and measuring the results of several specific goals (called Key Performance Indicators, or KPIs) that are established annually. We also document our progress by generating an annual Corporate Sustainability Report. In this edition, our fifth, I am pleased to report that we are making great strides in achieving many of our goals, specifically those related to safety & health and diverting waste from landfills. We honor the commitment of our company’s Associates – nearly 2,000 strong, in some 70 locations across 13 states - and we work hard to ensure that they have a career, not just a job. We desire to maintain a culture where our associates keep each other safe and feel that they are our greatest assets. We also encourage all locations to engage in their local communities through thoughtful giving and environmental stewardship efforts such as recycling. I believe that this report is solid evidence of our alignment in achieving these goals. I appreciate your taking the time and showing your interest in reviewing it.
