About us:

Belle Plaine Block & Tile, founded in 1954 specializes in manufacturing a diverse range of top-quality concrete products. From precast septic tanks, retaining walls, and fuel containment tanks to parking curbs, heavy-duty tanks, and plastic field tile, the company has demonstrated versatility in meeting construction needs for several decades.
Originally focused on block, staves, and concrete tile, BPBT transitioned to producing precast septic tanks in 1975, marking a significant expansion. In response to market trends, the late 1970s saw a shift towards plastic field tile, phasing out concrete options. Expanding further in 2006, BPBT ventured into the production of concrete landscape and retaining wall blocks.
Despite challenges during the 2008 recession, the company, adapted by catering to the commercial market. This strategic move involved producing larger forms for applications such as fuel containment at gas stations, water reclamation at car washes, grease interceptors at restaurants, and vaults for electrical stations.
Looking ahead, BPBT continues to invest in quality certification processes, working closely with authorities and considering the expansion of production facilities. With 45 years of family ownership, the company stands poised for enduring success.
