Theut History

Theut Products, Inc., has been producing lightweight and concrete block since 1937. It was in that year that Edwin P. Theut Sr. established Theut Products after accepting a concrete brick making machine in lieu of payment from a builder. Using that machine, Edwin Sr. and his wife Josephine opened the first Theut Products location near the Van Dyke & 9 Mile area.  Edwin Sr. was able to secure a bid quote from the city of Detroit to supply brick for the water and sewer department. Our customer base continued to grow, and in 1954 Theut Products relocated to a larger redi-mix transit plant in Chesterfield.

 

In an effort to supply building materials and tools throughout Southeast Michigan, Theut Products, Inc. opened locations in Marysville in 1972, Croswell 1975, Romeo 1976,  Richmond 1994 and Marine City 2001.

 

Current President Edwin C. Theut  oversees the six Theut Products locations, our fleet of transit mix trucks, and a full line of masonry products. Working together on his team are Edwin's wife Elaine, who is the Secretary/Treasurer, and their four children;  Edwin J., Eric, Evan and Elena all of whom are Vice Presidents within the company.

 

It's that unique family management structure and close working relationship with all Theut Products employees that has contributed to a strong foundation and their continued success. Theut Products is proud to offer everything the masonry and concrete industry needs, and is looking forward to the promise of a growing future.
