Our legacy

In 1936, he dove head-first into the cutthroat Depression-era contracting industry and founded the first transit mixed concrete company in the Northeast. After Basilio's death, his son Basil built on his father's legacy and founded Unistress in 1968. Today, in its third generation of family leadership, Perri Petricca has built Unistress to become one of the largest precast companies in North America, all while upholding Basilio's and Basil's uncompromising values and work ethic.
