In addition to engineering services, GRR recycles and sells reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP), recycled concrete aggregate (RCA), and foam Stabilized Base (FSB).
| Material | Price |
|---|---|
| Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) | $6/ton |
| Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) RC-6 | $7/ton |
| Foam Stabilized Base (FSB) | $29/ton |
| Mobile plant rental* | market |
Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) is pavement that has been removed and processed for reuse. RAP is the predominant material used in our FSB mixes. It’s less expensive – environmentally and monetarily – than virgin aggregate. Learn more about using RAP from The National Center for Asphalt Technology at Auburn University’s guide to best RAP practices.

Recycled concrete aggregate (RCA), compare to traditional stone, comes from old concrete. We recycle the old material by crushing and processing it. Like RAP, RCA does not rely on virgin material sources – making it less expensive and friendlier to our environment to procure. The current rate for RCA is $6/t.
FSB is produced with 100% recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) and involves a cold mixing process: you can hold it in your hand as soon as it comes out of the KMA central mill. Energy use is a small fraction of the hot mix process and there are no greenhouse emissions.
Conventional hot mix asphalt requires virgin quarried aggregates to be super heated to over 300 degrees Fahrenheit before being coated with a hot asphalt cement. It is a very energy intensive process with significant green house stack emissions.
| Asphalt | FSB | Traditional Hot Mix |
|---|---|---|
| Requires quarrying of virgin aggregates | NO | YES |
| Needs to be Superheated to Over 300 degrees Fahrenheit | NO | YES |
| Very Energy Intensive | NO | YES |
| Causes Significant Stack Emissions | NO | YES |
| Extremely Noisy Process | NO | YES |
| Very Hot to the Touch, Requires Protective Clothing | NO | YES |
| Small Window of Opportunity to Work with the Material as it Cools | NO | YES |
| Will Thermal Crack During Seasonal Temperature Variations | NO | YES |
If you have a large stockpile of RAP, our equipment can turn it into FSB recycled asphalt base which you can use on private work, or in many states, FSB is approved for public work. Once we haul our plant to your site, we can begin producing material within hours. In addition to our plant facility you can use our up to date knowledge base to help spec your job and make sure the material is right for the job. We can also perform testing and reporting for jobs where our mobile plants are used.
