Understanding Recycled Asphalt and Its Process

Recycled asphalt is pavement material that has been removed, processed, and prepared for reuse in new paving work. Instead of sending usable asphalt material to waste, it can be collected and processed into material that can be used again. The process starts with removing existing asphalt from a pavement area through milling or other removal methods. The recovered material is then transported for processing, where it is crushed and screened to create a more consistent size. Any unwanted materials are separated during processing. 


The recycled asphalt can then be blended with other suitable materials, depending on the planned paving application. Before use, the material is checked to ensure it is suitable for the intended work. During installation, the recycled asphalt mixture is placed over a prepared surface and spread evenly. It is then compacted to create a stable and consistent pavement layer. Proper compaction is important because it helps the material hold together and support regular use.


At Custom Asphalt Paving, recycled asphalt solutions in Springfield, OH, focus on proper material preparation, suitable placement, and careful compaction. Reusing asphalt can reduce material waste while creating a practical surface for suitable paving applications. With proper preparation and installation, recycled asphalt can provide a durable option for pavement maintenance and surface improvement.

From Reclaimed Pavement to New Surface

Recycled asphalt begins with recovering usable pavement material from an existing surface. Asphalt may be removed through milling or other approved methods, then collected for processing. During processing, the material is crushed and screened to create a more consistent mixture. Unwanted debris and unsuitable materials are separated so the recycled asphalt can be used for an appropriate paving application. Once prepared, the material is transported to the work area or blended with other materials when needed. Before placement, the surface is checked and prepared to provide stable support. 

The recycled asphalt is then spread across the prepared area at a suitable depth. Proper grading helps create an even surface, while compaction presses the material together to improve stability and reduce loose areas. Multiple passes may be used to achieve the desired firmness. After installation, the surface should be monitored for changes, drainage concerns, and areas that may need maintenance.
