When recycling old concrete from a demolition, the most common procedure is the following:
STEP 1: Concrete is processed. Large pieces of concrete are first crushed using special equipment.
STEP 2: Concrete is broken down through Primary crushers through a screen to make the product needed.
STEP 3: Concrete is then ground down.

Benefits of Recycling?
What are the benefits that come from recycling concrete from construction sites:
- First and foremost, recycling concrete reduces construction waste.
- Extending the life of landfills.
- Reducing costs generated from disposal and tipping fees.
- Lowering transportation costs, since concrete can be recycled near demolition sites.
- Recycling concrete can help earn LEED certification points.
- Generating employment opportunities.
What is the product used for?
- Base for new asphalt pavement: There is a process called rubblization, which consists of breaking down old concrete pavement, and using it as a base for asphalt.
- Outdoor surfaces: Permeable concrete is used in driveways, parking lots and walkways to reduce the runoff that must be handled by storm sewer systems. Permeable concrete also helps replenish groundwater levels. In some outdoor areas, crushed concrete can be used to create porous surfaces that work similar to permeable concrete. (Driveways, Shed/Garage Pads, Drainage projects)
- Bed foundation material for utility trenches: These trenches are covered with gravel to assist drainage, and recycled concrete can be used as a substitute.
