The Slag Cement Association (SCA) announced Jan Prusinski of Skyway Cement as its next president. He previously served as the association’s vice chair and its first executive director.
Prusinski has led U.S. and state organizations in a wide range of programs to promote and advocate for the use of slag cement and other supplementary cementitious materials in concrete construction. In his current role, he works as the vice president of marketing at Skyway Cement Co., a subsidiary of Eagle Materials.
“I am very excited to begin serving as SCA’s president,” said Prusinski. “The Slag Cement Association represents 95% of all slag cement producers and suppliers in the United States and performs an integral role as the leading advocate for the use of slag cement in improving the strength, durability, and sustainability of concrete in the built environment.”
Prusinski succeeds Lori Tiefenthaler of Heidelberg Materials. During her tenure, Tiefenthaler hosted SCA’s inaugural and second annual Slag Cement Schools, oversaw the development of Slag Cement University, and awarded more than 30 concrete projects for their exceptional use of slag cement during the Slag Cement in Sustainable Concrete Awards.
