Introduction

When PABCO Gypsum suffered power outages from an unexpected storm, Allied Rental Company was able to provide emergency power services to allow their company’s operations to continue. Allied Rental Company is available 24/7 and was proud they could provide emergency after hours assistance for PABCO Gypsum. PABCO Gypsum would have lost $40,000/day without power, but thanks to Allied’s services, PABCO was able to resume operations normally until the power was restored to the main power grid.

THE STORY OF PABCO GYPSUM

PABCO Gypsum began operating in 1972 with the acquisition of a wallboard plant in Newark, California. Five years later, the company expanded its gypsum manufacturing capabilities with the acquisition of a Las Vegas plant and gypsum quarry in Nevada. Both plants have been expanded and modernized and now supply over 1.65 billion square feet of gypsum board annually.

PABCO Gypsum is a family-owned company who has adopted practices throughout its operations to minimize its impact on our environment. They have achieved this by reducing and reusing waste materials, managing their water consumption and using alternative energy in some of their production facilities as much as possible. The PABCO Paper Company located in Vernon, CA uses 100% recycled content paper which is used to manufacture gypsum liners for the PABCO Gypsum wallboard.

In March 2023, Capital City primarily used PABCO board to build many homes in the community. A few of their recent projects includes:

Winchester Ranch Development: 700 residential units built on a 15.7 acre site.
Crocker Village Community: High-end, single-family homes in Sacramento.
Silver Crest at Russel Ranch: One and two-story high-end homes in Folsom, CA.

The largest project PABCO Gympsum was a part of was the $72 million project for the new Civic Center in Newark, CA that was completed in May 2022. The completion of this Civic Center provided a safe, efficient, customer friendly office space for city administration functions along with a police station/emergency dispatch center, Council Chambers, a world class library and the Civic Center Plaza that serves as a multifunctional event space which was built as a source of pride and community recognition.
