Shingle Recycling
Falcon Green Resources has produced over 350,000 tons ground shingles for use in Hot mix asphalt. We are helping reduce crude oil extraction and saving the space in our landfills. The positive impact that shingle recycling has on our environment is obvious. Hot mix asphalt producers have a great opportunity to “go green” by adding Recycled asphalt shingles to their mix design.
Benefits of using R.A.S. in hot mix asphalt:
- replaces virgin asphalt
- Adds fiber, increasing strength
- Adds high-quality trap rock, improving skid resistance
- Ras is not a hazardous material and does not require special regulations, unlike hot liquid asphalt
- A dry form of asphalt more affordable to store and stockpile.
- Government incentives lower the cost even further.
- Using eco-friendly products is good for public relations.
11 million tons of shingles are disposed of annually, filling up valuable landfill space. Ask your hot mix producer if they offer an eco-friendly option, made with recycled asphalt shingles.
