Recycle ReUse Gypsum Wall Board: Drywall

What is Gypsum?  Can Gypsum be Recycled?


Gypsum is a naturally occurring mineral composed of calcium sulfate dihydrate (CaSO4·2H2O). It is a soft sulfate mineral that is often used for a variety of purposes, including as a building material in the form of gypsum board (also known as drywall or wallboard), as a soil conditioner, as a component in the production of cement, and for the creation of plaster of Paris for mold-making and casting. The chemical composition and physical properties of gypsum make it a versatile material with a range of industrial and agricultural applications when new or recycled however recycling gypsum is not a widely accepted opportunity. 


Gypsum drywall board can be recycled, but the process is not as widespread as other building materials. The recycling options for gypsum drywall include:


  1. Grinding: The drywall can be ground down into a fine powder and used as a soil amendment or added to new drywall.
  2. Incorporation into Cement: The gypsum can be used as a component in the production of cement.
  3. Reuse: In some cases, gypsum drywall can be salvaged and reused on-site, if it is not contaminated with hazardous materials or mold.


It's important to note that not all recycling facilities accept gypsum drywall, and it may be necessary to check with local recycling facilities to see if they offer this service.

Recycling Batt and Ceiling Insulation: An Environmentally Friendly Solution

Insulation is an essential component in maintaining the energy efficiency and comfort of homes and buildings. It helps regulate the temperature inside and reduces energy costs by preventing heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. The use of recycled batt and ceiling insulation has become a popular alternative to traditional insulation methods as it helps reduce waste and is an environmentally friendly solution.


What is Recycled Batt and Ceiling Insulation?


Recycled batt and ceiling insulation are made from recycled materials such as glass, cellulose, and mineral wool. These materials are collected, processed, and repurposed into insulation products that provide excellent thermal and acoustic insulation properties. They are available in various forms, including rolls, batts, and blown-in insulation, to meet the specific insulation needs of a building.


What can Recycled batt insulation be made into?


  1. Insulated panels for walls and roofs in construction
  2. Soundproofing materials for walls and ceilings
  3. Energy-efficient homes and buildings
  4. Eco-friendly insulation products for homes and commercial spaces
  5. Packaging materials for temperature-sensitive products
  6. Recyclable shipping containers
  7. Automotive insulation and interior materials
  8. Insulated clothing and gear for outdoor and industrial use
  9. Thermal insulation for pipes and tanks
  10. Recyclable insulation for HVAC systems.
