Shingles

Recycling that old roof
can put a new roof over
your head

Asphalt shingles are the most common roofing material used in America and when they reach the end of their life, they can be recycled, thanks to their valuable asphalt content.

Recycling asphalt shingles diverts them from taking up valuable space in landfills and allows the raw material to be used in a variety of new applications, such as hot mix asphalt for paving roads, parking lots, driveways, and walking paths. It’s estimated that the shingles from an average-sized home can pave about 200 feet of a two-lane road.

Recycled asphalt is also used as a component in new shingles.

A high-torque shredder easily reduces the volume of old shingles, shredding them into smaller pieces to be recycled.
