CertainTeed is working diligently to achieve an aggressive goal of 50% waste reduction by 2035. Having a hand in what happens to their shingles and other roofing products further down the pipeline is a logical step in ensuring less of their products wind up in our nation's landfills.
CertainTeed believes in the importance of partnership within and across industries, and they saw a partnership with RenuCore as a natural fit on their journey to reducing asphalt shingle waste, something they know is good for the environment and good for the asphalt industry. RenuCore’s technology was developed by professionals with more than 40 years each in the asphalt industry. Partnering with these innovators to bring their processes and procedures to the industry was an opportunity to put the weight of an established building materials company behind a proven process, providing the advocacy and support that industry and consumers have come to expect from CertainTeed.
Using RenuCore RAS pellets can replace up to 5% by weight.
Yes, there is no separation of components; the entire shingle is incorporated into the pelletization process.
RenuCore’s pelletized product can be introduced directly through your RAP feeder, where it will blend exceptionally well into your existing hot mix.
CertainTeed is making the manufacturing IP available for purchase by construction and demolition (C&D) recyclers and hot mix asphalt producers; we are not selling the pellets themselves.
We have completed a full course of laboratory quality testing as well as field performance testing of pavements that use RenuCore RAS pellets. All test reports are available upon request.
RenuCore RAS pellets are a shelf-stable product that can be stored for at least 12 months, ensuring a continuous and reliable supply for your HMA production needs.
