In 1989, Crane Materials International revolutionized the marine construction industry. Taking a radically new approach to an established process, CMI’s founders created an innovative sheet piling solution relying not on traditional materials, but on an advanced solution that offered untold new benefits

In those early years, CMI founders John Irvine and John Yeosock had to install the product themselves in order to get the product out into the market. It was through that hands-on work - and later, through close interaction with contractors and distributors - that CMI developed its strong focus on the needs of their customers. |

After developing vinyl sheet piling and working in the field installing it at customer sites, the CMI founders quickly realized there was an entire universe of products for both marine and soil applications that could be radically improved through the use of advanced materials.The founders then set about assembling an unrivalled group of engineering and manufacturing professionals in order to change the entire construction business.
The newly formed CMI team designed a suite of patented products that, to this day, stand head and shoulders above any market competitors including:
• Advanced retaining wall capping and anchoring solutions
• Polymer-protected timber piling and wale solutions for marine and recreational applications.
• Advanced Fiber Composite sheet piling for a wide spectrum of specialized applications. |

Today, Crane Materials International is continually searching for new innovations that will maintain the construction materials industry’s place at the cutting edge of 21st century technology. In that process, CMI has recently acquired Gator Dock and Marine –
a leading manufacturer of aluminum docks, sheet piling and marine construction materials. The addition of Gator products to the CMI offering insures that customers will now be able to rely on CMI for even more of their waterfront construction needs.
Guided not only by the desire to succeed, CMI also adheres rigidly to a set of values and ethics unmatched by any competitor.
Crane Materials has over 10 times more linear feet of vinyl sheet piling installed worldwide than even its closest competitor – a testament to the confidence of their clients. Everyday, in countries from the USA to Australia, contractors, distributors, federal governments and homeowners turn to Crane Materials, knowing that the creator of the vinyl construction materials industry remains the one name they can always turn to and trust for consistent high quality, unmatched service and unbeatable value.
