We build collaborative partnerships focused on completing projects on time and within budget while exceeding client expectations.

The CARCON Difference 

As a certified Hispanic Woman-led firm with over 25 years of experience, CARCON Industries brings authentic North Texas values and relationships to projects across the state. Our certified Minority and Woman-Owned Business Enterprise status reflects our commitment to diversity and workforce development, while our proven capacity to manage large-scale projects as both prime contractor and super subcontractor sets us apart. We deliver excellence through comprehensive quality control, scalable bonding capacity, and deep-rooted regional expertise aimed at transforming projects into lasting assets that benefit the communities we serve.

COMPANY HISTORY

In January 2000, Arcilia Acosta founded CARCON Industries in Dallas, Texas, driven by a shared vision to build more than just structures – we wanted to build a legacy for our community. We began with foundational projects, like the Cotton Bowl bathroom renovations and initial paving for DART, establishing our roots in infrastructure development. However, it was our deep involvement in the DFW TRIP project, and the enduring relationships we forged with DART and DFW Airport, that truly propelled our growth. Being a part of every DART railway line in Dallas isn’t just a project milestone; it’s a point of collective pride, a testament to our commitment to this city. As a certified M/WBE, we are determined to demonstrate that excellence and diversity go hand-in-hand.

From those initial infrastructure projects, we’ve grown into a multi-million dollar company, expanding into diverse sectors like education, healthcare, and industrial development. Projects like the Texas A&M Fort Worth Law and Education Building, and the TCCD 2019 Bond Program, showcase our capacity to tackle complex, large-scale initiatives. In 2003, we established Southwestern Testing Laboratories dba STL Engineers, North Texas’s only minority and woman-owned geotechnical engineering and construction materials testing firm, which allowed us to provide comprehensive, in-house expertise. This strategic expansion, always guided by our M/WBE principles, has been the cornerstone of CARCON’s collective success.
