Recycling Asphalt Roofing Shingles Since 1996
BR has led the way in recycling asphalt roofing shingles in Minnesota for the past 15 years, processing and recycling more than 145,000 tons. Since 1996, it is estimated that we have produced over 2,900,000 tons of asphalt mixtures containing roofing shingles. Roofing shingles are made of asphalt cement, mineral filler, and high quality aggregate. These materials are the same ingredients used in the production of asphalt mixtures making shingles an attractive additive that reduces raw material costs while providing a high quality product.
