projects. Through our shingle processing, we are able to conserve landfill airspace and reduce the use of virgin oil needed to manufacture hot mix asphalt.Dem-Con was able to work closely with our partners at the MPCA, MnDOT, the hot-mix industry and equipment manufactures to develop this product and meet the strict quality demands for use in hot-mix asphalt.In addition to our shingle processing on site, we offer mobile grinding services throughout the Midwest.
