Mohawk Materials

Mohawk Materials, originally Mohawk Rock and Sand, was founded in Sand Springs, Oklahoma in 1953 by Finis White. Initially Mohawk was primarily a rock and sand producer based on the banks of the Arkansas River. The company was purchased by Howard Waller in 1973. During Mr. Waller’s 10 years of ownership, the company grew to include the production and process of drying, screening and packaging industrial sands for the Sandblasting Industry, which is now known as the Surface Prep Industry. In 1976, Mr. Waller expanded Mohawk to include the manufacturing of packaged concrete products.
