Commercial Portfolio Recycled Content Certification

For decades, our thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) plants have been committed to recycling or reusing as much of their waste as possible. TPO—a roofing material for low slope and flat roofs—is a significant product for us at GAF, so these efforts make a big impact. We recently decided to pursue a recycled content certification for our TPO products through a third party, GreenCircle Certified. Of the total material in our TPO products, 4-5% is reused. While that might seem small, we’re able to put most of the scrap that we generate back into the process, so that 4-5% represents tons of saved scrap that goes right back into our products.

Industry professionals are increasingly focused on material health, indoor air quality, and the environmental impact of the products that are specified in building designs. We’re responding to that demand by offering product transparency documentation including:
