ARS Recycling Systems, LLC

Thirty years ago, New Jersey officials were looking to repaint aging bridges and overpasses to remove lead paint. With disposal costs for hazardous materials climbing, they awarded the contract to an Ohio painting company that offered to recycle their blasting medium. By leveraging recyclable steel grit instead of using single-use mineral, the company could reduce disposal from truckloads of slag and lead paint to barrels of only paint, creating a cleaner repainting process while saving both time and money. The only problem? No portable grit recycling system existed. In the face of this need, ARS Recycling Systems was born.

Every ARS abrasive blasting system is built from their patented steel grit recycling process, crafting time-tested machinery with industry leading reliability. As the steel-grit blasting industry has grown, so have ARS’s product offerings. With blasting systems of all sizes, configurations, and use-cases — no project is inaccessible. ARS now serves several industries, including the surface prep, bridge, petri-chemical, marine, and transloading markets. By keeping lead times short and prices competitive, ARS ensures that every contractor experiences higher ROI for each job.

Founded to solve the problems of contractors, ARS continues to create innovative solutions today. Whether it’s superior design in industrial dust collectors, a transloading system that reduces downtime when transporting dry bulk, or ARS’s patented Mobile Lift Truck that eliminates the need for bulky and unsafe rolling scaffolding — ARS ensures that the needs of any job can be met. As an engineered solution provider combined with unmatched customer and technical support from startup onward, ARS is the first choice of both new and established steel abrasive blasting customers.
