Our Sustainability
Policy
At A-1 Grit Company, we go above and beyond to make our products in the
most sustainable ways possible. Whether it's packaging our material in 100%
recyclable or compostable bags, we strive to make sure that the manufacturing
and delivering of our products creates a small carbon footprint. We're constantly looking for new ways to
reduce waste within our company, while also researching cleaner and better ways
to manufacture our products.
Our aggregates are
eco-friendly products!
We make all of our products locally, using resources within 500 miles of
our manufacturing plants. Most of our products
are all-natural, which means that they do not require energy-intensive
manufacturing and our aggregates will not corrode, off-gas, or break down over
time. After its lifespan roofing aggregate can be reused for landscaping or
recycled into concrete and sand products.
“Cool Roof” benefits!
A-1 Grit Company carries aggregate
roofing products that meet Title 24 “Cool Roof” standards. Having a “Cool Roof”
saves energy, reduces utility bills, and helps the environment. An aggregate
roof is long-lasting, fire-resistant, very affordable and requires very little
maintenance over 20 years.
