The recycled asphalt market was 7,135.2 million in 2019 and is expected to reach 10,359.5 million growing at a CAGR of 5.9% during the forecast period. Recycled asphalt processing is done by crushing the surface layer of existing asphalt site. It is used for reconstruction and resurfacing purposes. It is also used in preparing asphalt shingles for roofing. Moreover, it reduces consumption of natural resources such as water and coal. Shingles and ground tire rubber are able to be integrated into asphalt. This reduces the virgin material needed while providing incredibly useful home materials that would otherwise be in landfills. Just as reclaimed asphalt is integrated into new asphalt, so are shingles. Nearly 10 million tons of shingles are disposed each year with nearly 1.5 million tons are reused in asphalt. Shingle waste is generated from either manufacturer waste or tear offs from roofs.
