OUR STORY

A Sustainable Journey

Our Value Is
Multifaceted

Founded In 2019

Sky Quarry is an integrated energy solutions company, created to address the environmental issues caused by the landfill disposal of waste asphalt roofing shingles. 

Nearly 6 million homes in the USA are reroofed each year, sending approximately 15 million tons of asphalt roofing shingles to landfills across the country for disposal.

If recycled, each year’s disposed shingles would equate to the recovery of 20 million barrels of oil and 9 million tons of sands, aggregate, and other construction solids.

The Sky Quarry team recognized the untapped potential of an already established oil extraction technology. Leveraging their expertise, they conceived of a groundbreaking application capable of separating waste shingles into clean oil and other valuable materials to transform an environmental challenge into a profitable and sustainable prospect.

Our Mission

Our purpose-led mission is to conserve, recycle and upcycle waste asphalt shingle material, decrease landfill waste, and reduce emissions. We aim to capitalize on long-term waste-to-energy sustainability by producing viable end products to be sold in the infrastructure product and energy markets.

Our Vision

Utilizing our technology and expertise, we envision ourselves as a premier products sales company, committed to sustainable energy practices, while maximizing profit margins, creating a legacy of substantial value for our shareholders and customers alike.

Our Scalable Business Model

Designed For Profitability

One of the most compelling aspects of our business model is that we will get paid to receive waste asphalt shingles, which is called a “tipping fee.” The national average for  tipping fees are $45 to $120 with an expected growth of 8% annually. These tipping fess are anticipated to cover most, if not all, of the costs to process & break down the shingles.

 

Constant Feedstock

We are in discussions with roofing contractors, waste management companies, and construction firms to secure a consistent supply of asphalt shingle feedstock and have targeted those areas with the highest tipping fees.

Regional Sales

We are forming partnerships with local construction and paving companies to generate immediate revenue through the regional sales of reclaimed aggregate materials.

Revenue Diversification

Our strategy of developing multiple revenue streams enhances our financial stability, ensuring that every component of the recycling process contributes to our bottom line.

Rapid Scalability

Sky Quarry is setting up small recycling units nationwide to process waste asphalt shingles (WAS), utilizing the modular nature of these facilities for easy scalability and quick deployment.
