The industry goals are to reduce landfill disposal of asphalt-based roofing materials to 50% by 2035 and to approach 0% by 2050. 

To accomplish these goals, ARMA will foster and promote responsible, economically feasible, and sustainable circular economy options to recycle asphalt-based roofing materials and enhance the long-term viability of asphalt roofing as the preferred roofing material.

“ARMA recognizes that industry initiatives are best achieved when there are common goals, especially in efforts involving sustainability and recycling,” stated Reed Hitchcock, ARMA Executive Vice President. “Increased recycling of asphalt roofing materials will further improve our industry’s circularity and overall environmental footprint.” 

ARMA’s vision and mission is to be an association committed to the long-term sustainability of the asphalt roofing industry and to advocate and advance the interests of the asphalt roofing industry by leveraging the collective expertise of its members.
