Recycling Depot Hamilton, 14310 Hamilton Ave, Highland Park, MI 48203, US

HistorySince 2003, Great Lakes Aggregates, LLC - Recycled Aggregates Highland Park Plant has provided quality products to our target industries while being aware of our environmental impact. Recycling concrete provides sustainability in several different ways. The simple act of recycling the concrete reduces the amount of material that must be landfilled. The concrete itself becomes aggregate and any embedded metals can be removed and recycled as well. As space for landfills becomes premium, this not only helps reduce the need for landfills, but also reduces the economic impact of the project. Moreover, using recycled concrete aggregates reduces the need for virgin aggregates. This in turn reduces the environmental impact of the aggregate extraction process. By removing both the waste disposal and new material production needs, transportation requirements for the project are significantly reducedSpecialtiesRecycled Aggregates Highland Park Plant #18 is part of the Great Lakes Aggregates, LLC family. We focus on providing our clients with clean crushed aggregate. Highland Park Plant #18 is a Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) certified plant. Recycling concrete involves breaking, removing, and crushing existing concrete into a material with a specified size and quality to be reused by various construction industries.. Many materials are removed, such as reinforced steel, asphalt, soil and clay balls, chlorides, glass, gypsum board, sealants, paper, plaster, wood, and roofing materials. Recycled concrete aggregates produced from all but the poorest quality original concrete can be expected to pass the same tests required of conventional aggregates.
