Issues Associated with Reprocessing Asphalt Shingles
Sky Quarry asks prospective investors:
Did you know millions of tons of shingles end up in landfills every year? It’s an environmental problem. But we have a solution! At Sky Quarry, we get paid to collect and dispose of asphalt shingles, and here’s the real magic – we transform them into valuable, resellable asphalt bitumen.
Our business plan is simple – we turn waste into wealth!
We’re on a mission to reduce, recycle, and reuse shingle waste.
Ultimately, we’re doing well while doing good and looking for like-minded investors to join us.
Is there a cost associated with separating asphalt shingles from the other substances that are going into landfills? Does that cost make this proposition completely asinine, even if there were a potential business model in selling asphalt bitumen?
