KNIFE RIVER IS A PEOPLE-FIRST CONSTRUCTION COMPANY
EVERYTHING WE DO IS POSSIBLE BECAUSE OF OUR TEAM
We believe in building things that last, and that starts with our employees. The heart of our “Life at Knife” philosophy is building strong teams that, in turn, build strong communities.
WHO WE ARE
At Knife River, our “Life at Knife” is how we live our four core values: People, Safety, Quality and the Environment.
PEOPLE
We will take care of our team by providing them the tools, training and time to perform their work safely and successfully. We will provide competitive wages and benefits. We will deliver excellent customer service and treat everyone with respect. We will watch out for the public in our work zones and anywhere we operate.
SAFETY
Our top priority on every task, every time, every day. We strive to lead the world in safety not because of statistics, but because we genuinely care about people’s wellbeing. Everyone has the right to be safe and the responsibility to look out for their co-workers, the public, and themselves.
GETTING THE JOB DONE.
Knife River provides construction materials and contracting services in the western, central and southern U.S.
AGGREGATES
It all starts with rock. Construction aggregates are the foundation of the nation’s infrastructure.
ASPHALT
Asphalt is used to pave roads, driveways and parking lots, giving them a smooth, durable surface.
READY-MIX CONCRETE
Concrete is the most-used building material on the planet and it’s no wonder why.
CONSTRUCTION
We offer complete construction services, from demolition to clearing, grading, excavating and building up the new site.
SPECIALTY
Knife River companies also provide specialized products and services, including precast/prestressed concrete, liquid asphalt and cement.
