Advanced Precast Company, Inc. was founded in 2008 by Michael Decker and a small group of investors. Decker, owner and operator of Decker Concrete, Inc. in Dyersville, Iowa, has been in the concrete industry for over 20 years. During the summer of 2007, a local businessman approached Decker Concrete about pouring tilt-up panels for a 34,000 sq ft manufacturing building. Decker agreed to the challenge and word spread around the local tri-state. Decker Concrete suddenly started receiving several inquiries from general contractors and developers interested in precast wall panels. In 2008, Decker found an indoor location, along highway 20 in Farley, Iowa, and started Advanced Precast Company, Inc. APC now operates in a 67,000 sq ft facility located in Dyersville, Iowa. They engineer and design architectural and structural wall panels and double-T panels with a variety of finishes, sizes, and thicknesses.
