Ronnie Blacklidge's Passing

Posted By: Cliff Selkinghaus Association Updates, Cliff's Notes,

Ronald Wayne "Ronnie" Blacklidge passing was the second blow to our industry with losing another pioneer in the asphalt business. He was the owner of Blacklidge Emulsions, Inc. and his company was instrumental in the development of a product that is commonly used throughout the world called "trackless tack". He graciously provided materials for research and development to make our asphalt product better and longer lasting. Blacklidge has always been a great supporter of SCAPA over the years, and they continue to make asphalt emulsions from their Greer facility everyday right here in SC. He was a good leader for his company and has always surrounded himself with good hard working, knowledgeable staff that we have depended on over the years. Ronnie will be missed and our prayers are being sent out to Brittney and his his family.
