Recycled Base
Concrete and Asphalt may be reused as Recycled Base after crushing and sizing these materials to produce a product that is typically equal to or better than virgin aggregate base. Asphalt and Concrete are 100% recyclable where specifications allow recycled base. Recycling reduces the need to landfill this material

Sustainable Construction Capabilities
We are always seeking new and innovative ways to use products, processes, and methodologies that save energy, conserve natural resources, and accomplish more with fewer environmental impacts. A cornerstone of our efforts is the use of recycled materials in the construction materials that we produce, but our endeavors go beyond recycled construction materials.
