Mr. Rowley will continue to have line operating responsibility for all four of CXPs business units: cement, gypsum wallboard, paperboard, and concrete and aggregates.
Mr. Rowley, 50, has a total of 26 years of experience in the construction products industry. He joined CXP in 1991 as plant manager at its Nevada Cement Company operation and subsequently became Executive Vice President at Illinois Cement Company.
