SEATTLE (Waste Advantage): The 10th Shingle Recycling Forum will be held October 29-30, 2024, at the Omni Hotel in Louisville, Kentucky. Hosted by the Construction & Demolition Recycling Association (CDRA), the premier industry event will unite recyclers with manufacturers, asphalt plant operators, road pavers, DOT officials, technology providers, and more for impactful networking and cutting-edge presentations from industry experts. Interest in recycling roofing materials is growing because of circularity demands, higher oil prices, and government initiatives. Learn how all stakeholders influence regulation and end markets, from asphalt pavement to closed-loop recycling, to create the ‘next wave’ of shingle recycling.

The event kicks off with a welcome reception that sets the tone for the forum and provides an excellent networking opportunity. The following day’s sessions will include presentations from experienced recyclers and processors, sharing lessons learned and best practices. Another session will delve into the crucial challenge of end markets, exploring all possibilities from pavement mixes to extraction to closing the loop into new shingles. A panel of leading shingle manufacturers will share how their sustainability efforts are contributing to this process. Another session will cover using recycled asphalt shingles (RAS) in balanced mix designs (BMD) for roads. These real-world examples demonstrate the tangible benefits of shingle recycling and will inspire further innovation in the industry. The event will wrap up with a closing reception, allowing attendees to compare notes and collaborate to grow their businesses and increase recycling.
