Recycled Asphalt Usage
Mix designs approved for hot-mix asphalt production include significant proportions of recycled materials.
Energy monitoring systems at quarries and asphalt plants automatically shut off systems once target temperatures are reached to reduce energy consumption
Asphalt is the most recycled construction material in use; Scotty’s hot-mix designers continue increasing reuse rates beyond current thresholds
