The Ohio Aggregates and Industrial Minerals Association (OAIMA) held its 2025 Annual Meeting Oct. 13–14, 2025, at the Hilton at Easton in Columbus, bringing together producers, engineers and industry partners from across the region.

The event delivered legislative updates, regulatory insights, safety discussions and technical presentations that outlined key priorities for the coming year, including workforce needs, infrastructure funding and continued industry advocacy.

A full exhibit hall allowed attendees to meet with suppliers showcasing equipment, technology and services aimed at improving production efficiency and safety. Strong support from OAIMA's annual sponsors helped reinforce the association's education and outreach efforts.

Networking remained a central component of the meeting as participants discussed upcoming projects, permitting activity, market conditions and equipment planning. The event set a positive tone for 2025 and underscored OAIMA's role as a leading voice for Ohio's aggregate and industrial minerals sector.
