Recycled Asphalt (Asphalt, Recycled)
Applications & Uses
Recycled Asphalt Aggregate
Recycled asphalt is a sustainable construction material produced by milling and reprocessing old asphalt pavement. This aggregate retains the binding properties of asphalt, making it an eco-friendly alternative to new materials while reducing landfill waste.
The recycled attribute means the material is both cost-effective and environmentally responsible, offering similar performance to virgin asphalt. Its composition allows for excellent compaction, creating a stable, durable surface that resists rutting and erosion. Common applications include residential driveways, parking lots, rural roads, and as a base layer for new asphalt installations. Recycled asphalt is also popular for temporary surfaces and patching projects.
Pros include reduced dust, good drainage, and a semi-bonded finish that minimizes loose material. However, it may not be as visually uniform as new asphalt and can be less suitable for decorative applications. Overall, recycled asphalt is a practical choice for those seeking durability, sustainability, and value in their paving and base layer projects.
