Recycling Asphalt - Earth Day

As we celebrate Earth Day we cannot help but think about the impacts of recycling asphalt. EJ Paving has invested in the efforts to reuse and recycle asphalt on our jobs, paving the way to a greener more sustainable future.  

Asphalt, a ubiquitous material in road construction, stands as a prime example of sustainability through recycling. By reclaiming and reusing asphalt pavement, we not only reduce the burden on natural resources but also mitigate environmental impacts associated with conventional road construction practices.

The process of asphalt recycling begins with pavement milling, where the existing asphalt surface is removed using specialized machinery. We ensure all asphalt is recycled either by milling or removal. We then crush and screen, creating out own gravel to re-use on future projects. . This process helps asphalt become one of the most recycled materials in the world.

In essence, asphalt recycling emerges as a cornerstone of sustainable infrastructure development. By harnessing the potential of recycled materials, we pave the way for a greener, more resilient future for generations to come.
