The company is focused on heavy construction materials in the southwestern United States market (e.g. Texas and California). There are mainly three products: cement (Portland, masonry and oil well cements), aggregates, and concrete related products. Until 2012, Texas Industries owned 82 manufacturing facilities in six states.[1] Key facilitiesIts Midlothian plant on the south side of Midlothian, Texas ({{coord|32|27|43|N|97|1|21|W|region:US_type:landmark}}) is about {{convert|27|mi|km}} south of downtown Dallas. When the plant was built it was the largest cement plant in the country. Former key facilitiesThe Chaparral Steel plant is next to TXI's cement plant in Midlothian. Chaparral Steel was spun off from TXI and later purchased by Gerdau in 2007 for $4.2 billion.[2] At that time, Chaparral Steel was the second-largest producer of structural steel beams in North America and a major producer of steel bar product.[2] Company history{{expand list|date=January 2014}}In 1994, with an annual revenue of $614M, the company ranked 500th on the Fortune 500 list by annual revenue.[3][4] In January 2014, Martin Marietta Materials (MLM), a rival provider of construction materials, agreed to buy TXI for $2.06 billion in stock. The combined company will operate under the name Martin Marietta with 7,000 employees and headquarters in Raleigh, N.C., Martin Marietta’s current home.[5]{{Update after|2014|7|1|reason=Need to update this in a few months - 6 months after the announcement looks like a good time to do the update. Either the merger went through, it is still pending, or it was called off. If it went through, consider merging this article with that of its new parent company.}} As of July 2, 2014, TXI became a wholly owned subsidiary of Martin Marietta Materials, Inc.[6] Footnotes1. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.reuters.com/finance/stocks/lookup|title=Company Search Results|last=Editorial|first=Reuters|website=U.S.|language=en|access-date=2018-05-19}} 2. ^1 {{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/11/business/11steel.html|title=Gerdau Ameristeel Acquires Chaparral|last=Reuters|date=2007-07-11|work=The New York Times|access-date=2018-05-19|language=en-US|issn=0362-4331}} 3. ^{{cite news|last=Carmody|first=Deirdre|newspaper=The New York Times|title=THE MEDIA BUSINESS; Fortune Adds Service Sector To Its '500' List Of Corporations|date=1995-04-24|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1995/04/24/business/the-media-business-fortune-adds-service-sector-to-its-500-list-of-corporations.html}} 4. ^In 1994, the Fortune 500 list ranked industrial companies.
