An Association Supporting Kentucky's Asphalt Pavement Contractors. FaceBook - http://www.facebook.com/AsphaltKY Twitter - http://www.twitter.com/asphaltky The asphalt industry began developing in Kentucky in the early 1900's with the development of paving businesses and equipment advancements. The Southern Asphaltoilene Roads Company was formed in 1907 in Louisville, Kentucky. Asphalt drum mixers were developed in 1910. Asphalt production in the 1920 was 130 tons per day and required at least 11 workers to feed the cold elevator, charge the burner, supply aggregates, operate the boiler and the hopper mixer. Mechanical pavers and spreaders were available in the 1930's and nearly 1.6 million tons of plant mixed material was produced in the United States. As the industry grew in Kentucky, it became clear that an organization to represent the best interests of plant mixed asphalt was needed. On the 20th day of March, 1938, Secretary of State Charles D. Arnett authorized and empowered the Plantmix Asphalt Industry of Kentucky (PAIKY) to do business as a Corporation. Kentucky contractors own and operate over 140 hot mix asphalt plants that serve all 120 counties. In addition to the huge capital investment in these facilities and associated construction paving equipment, the industry employs thousands of Kentuckians. It is clear to see that that asphalt-paving industry has a significant and positive economic impact on our Commonwealth.
