Working for the future of safe roads
We produce high-quality materials from tar-containing asphalt, which can be used over and over again in the asphalt and concrete industry. Our positive impact goes beyond asphalt. We've honed a unique thermal cleaning process that leaves no residues, meaning all the materials become a product, such as gravel, sand, and fillers. Every contaminated material that we treat comes out as a resource that can be circled back into the economy. Efficiency is key to our business, and that's why our installations also produce clean energy, re-usable heat, and natural gas. This circular approach to how we do business fuels our daily mission to prevent landfilling and reduce the extraction and use of natural resources.

Expert treatment, done with care
We're committed to operating efficiently and effectively. It's important to us that we play our part in inspiring and educating the next generation in sustainable, secondary resources.
Unique thermal process
Our trusted treatment process not only cleans the asphalt and roofing materials of the harmful substances contained in them, but also produces valuable, high-quality products and uses the energy generated for delivering steam heating and electricity production at the same time. Tar-containing asphalt consists of the raw natural materials sand, gravel, filler, and tar as a binding agent. By heating to a high temperature, the tar is completely destroyed, and the resulting flue gases are scrubbed. What remains are more sustainable sand, gravel, and filler products.
Economy and ecology
The resulting materials are supplied as clean, certified end products such as sand, gravel, filler, and gypsum. These products are both an economic and ecological alternative for companies in the asphalt and concrete industries and the civil engineering sector. The end products are offered at competitive prices, thus helping to reduce the demand for natural materials. The large amount of heat released during the cleaning process is used to generate electricity and to supply to neighboring companies as well.
Large capacity for all solutions
Our large treatment capacity offers clients both continuity and flexibility. With an annual capacity of 1.8 million tonnes of asphalt waste, we operate Europe's largest mineral waste recycling facility. Whether your project demands continuous processing or rapid turnaround, our installations and location are designed to deliver, ensuring we can handle any volume, at any time, and provide clean, certified raw materials when you need them.
How we transform waste into resources
Future proof products: sand, gravel, filler and gypsum
All our products derived from tar-containing asphalt are delivered with certification. We have our products analysed by external specialised and accredited laboratories in order to guarantee our desired quality level. In addition, daily measurements and checks are carried out in our own laboratory in order to meet the stipulated requirements. Our QHSE department takes care of internal audits and accompanies external auditors.
Environmental Benefits of our Process
Our approach to tar containing asphalt recycling is driven by a commitment to the circular economy and a responsibility to reduce the environmental burden of waste disposal. Instead of viewing these materials as a residual by-product to be discarded, we see it as a valuable resource waiting to be recovered.
By producing recycled aggregates, we lower the carbon emissions of construction projects and reduce dependence on virgin materials, and because our process diverts significant volumes of waste from landfill, it prevents the long-term environmental issues associated with disposal, like unnecessary land use.
