CONCRETE AND ASPHALT RECYCLING CENTER - SERVING THE WASATCH FRONT AREA
Recycling
Asphalt and concrete were once a commodities that were stripped from roads and structures and treated as a waste products, routinely trucked to landfills for disposal. However, recycling has a number of benefits that have made it a more attractive option in this age of greater environmental awareness, more environmental laws, and the desire to keep construction costs down. Now, reclaimed asphalt and concrete is a valuable recyclable resource because it can be easily reprocessed and 100% of it can be recycled. Asphalt can be reclaimed and reused in future paving projects. Concrete can be crushed into aggregate of nearly any size from road base on up and used again. The steel from reinforced concrete is recyclable as well. What was once a costly expense to dispose, is now a plentiful product that can be used again.

Products that come from our recycling efforts:
1″ Crushed Concrete
1″ Crushed Concrete Base
1½" Crushed Concrete
1" Crushed Asphalt Base
1''-1½" Crushed Asphalt

RECYCLING BENEFITS TO THE COMMUNITY:

Recycling of asphalt pavement can save money for local governments and other purchasers, create additional business opportunities, conserve diminishing resources of aggregates and petroleum products, and help local governments meet the goal of reducing disposal.
The industry saves taxpayers over $300 million a year by recycling asphalt pavement. A recent national study found that asphalt is one of the most recycled products in the United States.
Contractors can save money as well by using recycled stone and aggregate materials on the job site.
Recycling can prolong the life of current landfills.
According to the CMRA, 140 million tons of C&D (concrete & demolition products) are recycled yearly.
In 2011 alone, recycling America's roads saved about 21.2 million barrels of liquid asphalt binder worth some $2.2 billion.
The asphalt industry initiated recycling long before legislation encouraged or required it.
