The ceremony marks the completion of pilot equipment construction and the official launch of Owens Corning's work to reclaim asphalt shingle components and repurpose them.

A new recycling program from Owens Corning aims to keep 2 million tons of asphalt shingles a year out of landfills by 2030.

The industry goals are to reduce landfill disposal of asphalt-based roofing materials to 50% by 2035 and to approach 0% by 2050.

GAF is committing to "Planet Goals," including recycling roofing materials into shingles, diverting waste and reducing carbon emissions across its portfolio.

For the first time, GAF installed a new roof on a residential home in Tampa using the GAF Timberline HDZ Roofcycle asphalt shingles.

GAF innovates and takes aim at reducing shingle waste with a pilot program and a $100 million investment to scale it up and bring it to every category of shingle.

In a test to demonstrate packaging sustainability, Kraft Heinz transformed recycled flexible plastic packaging into roofing material for two U.S. manufacturing plants.

Eight years after starting its recycling program, DaVinci Roofscapes has reprocessed and re-used more than 7 million pounds of polymer scrap, recycling more than 1 million pounds in 2019 alone.
