Our safety culture radiates into everything we do from our education and training programs, proven and effective processes, and cross-level safety teams that ensure healthy checks and balances. Our award-winning focus on safety benefits our people and your project.

Community Involvement

Corna Kokosing and its team members donate their time and talents to many worthy causes. Our CK StepUp committee organizes our team member community involvement activities.

Serving Meals

Our CK team members and friends regularly take the opportunity to serve meals at the YMCA Van Buren Center.

Partnering with Students

Corna Kokosing is in our 7th year of partnering with Cristo Rey Columbus High School. Cristo Rey students have the opportunity to gain hands-on experience and learn different parts of the business throughout the school year. In turn, CK team members get a chance to mentor and share information about the various professions in construction.

Diggers & Dozers Day

We are a proud corporate sponsor of the Annual Diggers & Dozers Day at The Works: Ohio Center for History, Art & Technology in Newark. Children have the opportunity to touch and learn about bulldozers, scissor lifts, diggers, dump trucks, firetrucks and other equipment in an effort to encourage their curiosity about the construction and other trades.

Making Wishes Come True

Corna Kokosing and Kokosing Industrial partnered with Make-A-Wish Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana to help make Trevor’s wish of being a construction worker come true. Trevor and his little brother Riley along with their parents spent the day visiting Corna Kokosing’s mill shop where they made their very own toolboxes and other jobsites in the areas.

Earth Day & Community Cleanup

Corna Kokosing team members helped reduce our footprint by regularly cleaning up the bike trails and community parks on a regular basis.

We give back because it benefits everyone.
