The biggest impact is reducing construction waste to landfill.

In addition, there was a paper developed by National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) that calculated the carbon savings benefit for recycling the aged PVC into closed- loop or open-loop construction products. To our knowledge, this is the first of its kind where the carbon benefit has been estimated for any roofing technology. This carbon benefit can be calculated for your roofing project or your roofing portfolio of projects and can be used for your environmental messaging.

For more information on the carbon benefit for recycling a PVC roof membrane, consult your PVC roofing manufacturer of choice.
