Alberta Portland Cement Company

Alberta Portland Cement Company

The Alberta Portland Cement Company was formed by Edward Rogers Wood.

Robert Butchart travelled to Alberta in 1907 to play a role in setting up the company’s operations.

There is not much information available about the Alberta Portland Cement Company but the available evidence suggests its operations were in Exshaw, Alberta.

The Alberta Portland Cement Company was taken over by the Canada Cement Company in 1909.

Here is a map showing the location of Exshaw, Alberta. Note that there is currently a Lafarge cement operation, called Lafarge Exshaw Cement Plant, in Exshaw, Alberta.
