Northstar Enables Global Market Access for Reprocessed Liquid Asphalt Through Successful Pelletization of End-of-life, Tear-off Shingles
Northstar Clean Technologies (TSXV: ROOF, OTCQB: ROOOF) announced a significant technological breakthrough at its Empower Calgary Facility, successfully producing liquid asphalt from end-of-life tear-off shingles and converting it into solid pellets. This achievement follows their July 2025 milestone of processing manufacturing waste shingles.
The company has now demonstrated its proprietary technology's capability to process both major types of waste shingles - tear-offs and manufacturing waste - into high-quality liquid asphalt. Independent third-party lab results have confirmed the high-quality specifications of the asphalt produced from both feedstock types.
This development is particularly significant as tear-off shingles, which are typically sent to landfills, represent the largest portion of the shingle waste stream. The successful pelletization of the recovered asphalt enables global market access through improved logistics of the solid form product.
Northstar Clean Technologies (TSXV: ROOF, OTCQB: ROOOF) ha annunciato una svolta tecnologica significativa presso il suo impianto Empower di Calgary, riuscendo a produrre asfalto liquido da tegole di scarto derivanti da rimozioni e a trasformarlo in pellet solidi. Questo risultato segue il traguardo raggiunto nel luglio 2025 relativo al trattamento degli scarti di produzione di tegole.
L'azienda ha così dimostrato che la sua tecnologia proprietaria è in grado di trattare entrambe le principali tipologie di rifiuti di tegole — tegole rimosse e scarti di produzione — ottenendo asfalto liquido di elevata qualità. Analisi indipendenti di laboratori terzi hanno confermato le specifiche di alto livello dell'asfalto derivato da entrambi i tipi di materie prime.
Lo sviluppo è particolarmente rilevante perché le tegole rimosse, che normalmente finiscono in discarica, costituiscono la porzione più consistente del flusso di rifiuti da tegole. La riuscita pelletizzazione dell'asfalto recuperato consente inoltre l'accesso ai mercati globali grazie a una logistica migliorata del prodotto in forma solida.
Northstar Clean Technologies (TSXV: ROOF, OTCQB: ROOOF) anunció un avance tecnológico importante en su planta Empower de Calgary, al producir con éxito asfalto líquido a partir de tejas retiradas al final de su vida útil y convertirlo en pellets sólidos. Este logro se suma al hito alcanzado en julio de 2025, cuando procesaron los residuos de fabricación de tejas.
La compañía ha demostrado que su tecnología propietaria puede procesar ambas principales categorías de residuos de tejas —tejas retiradas y residuos de fabricación— para obtener asfalto líquido de alta calidad. Resultados de laboratorios independientes de terceros han confirmado las especificaciones de calidad del asfalto producido a partir de ambos tipos de insumo.
Este avance tiene especial importancia porque las tejas retiradas, que normalmente se envían a vertederos, representan la mayor parte del flujo de residuos de tejas. La exitosa peletización del asfalto recuperado permite además acceder a mercados globales gracias a una logística mejorada del producto en forma sólida.
Northstar Clean Technologies (TSXV: ROOF, OTCQB: ROOOF)는 캘거리 Empower 시설에서 중대한 기술적 돌파를 이루어 수명이 다한 철거용 싱글(지붕재)로부터 액상 아스팔트를 성공적으로 생산하고 이를 고체 펠릿으로 전환했다고 발표했습니다. 이번 성과는 2025년 7월 제조 과정에서 발생하는 싱글 폐기물을 처리한 이정표에 이은 것입니다.
회사는 자사 독점 기술이 폐기물 싱글의 두 주요 유형—철거 싱글과 제조 폐기물—모두를 고품질 액상 아스팔트로 처리할 수 있음을 입증했습니다. 독립 제3자 시험기관의 결과가 두 종류 원료로 만든 아스팔트의 우수한 규격을 확인했습니다.
이번 개발은 일반적으로 매립되는 철거 싱글이 싱글 폐기물 흐름에서 가장 큰 비중을 차지한다는 점에서 특히 중요합니다. 회수된 아스팔트를 펠릿화한 성공은 고형 제품 형태의 물류 개선을 통한 글로벌 시장 진출을 가능하게 합니다.
Northstar Clean Technologies (TSXV: ROOF, OTCQB: ROOOF) a annoncé une avancée technologique majeure dans son site Empower de Calgary, réussissant à produire de l'asphalte liquide à partir de bardeaux en fin de vie et à le convertir en granulés solides. Cette réussite fait suite à l'étape franchie en juillet 2025 relative au traitement des déchets de fabrication de bardeaux.
L'entreprise a ainsi démontré que sa technologie propriétaire peut traiter les deux principales catégories de déchets de bardeaux — bardeaux retirés et déchets de production — pour obtenir un asphalte liquide de haute qualité. Des analyses indépendantes effectuées par des laboratoires tiers ont confirmé les spécifications élevées de l'asphalte produit à partir des deux types de matières premières.
Cette avancée est particulièrement significative car les bardeaux retirés, qui sont généralement envoyés en décharge, représentent la plus grande part du flux de déchets de bardeaux. La pelletisation réussie de l'asphalte récupéré permet en outre d'accéder aux marchés mondiaux grâce à une logistique améliorée du produit sous forme solide.
Northstar Clean Technologies (TSXV: ROOF, OTCQB: ROOOF) gab einen bedeutenden technologischen Durchbruch in seiner Empower-Anlage in Calgary bekannt: Es gelang, flüssigen Asphalt aus ausgebauten, end-of-life Dachschindeln herzustellen und diesen in feste Pellets umzuwandeln. Dieser Erfolg folgt auf den Meilenstein von Juli 2025, als Produktionsabfälle aus der Schindelfertigung verarbeitet wurden.
Das Unternehmen hat damit nachgewiesen, dass seine proprietäre Technologie beide Hauptarten von Schindelabfällen – Ausbau- und Produktionsabfälle – zu hochwertigem flüssigem Asphalt verarbeiten kann. Unabhängige Laboruntersuchungen Dritter bestätigten die hohen Spezifikationen des aus beiden Rohstoffarten gewonnenen Asphalts.
Die Entwicklung ist besonders bedeutsam, da ausgebauten Schindeln, die üblicherweise auf Deponien landen, den größten Anteil am Schindelabfallstrom ausmachen. Die erfolgreiche Pelletierung des rückgewonnenen Asphalts ermöglicht zudem den Zugang zu globalen Märkten durch verbesserte Logistik des Produkts in fester Form.
- Successfully demonstrated technology works with both tear-off and manufacturing waste shingles
- Independent lab results confirmed high-quality specifications for produced asphalt
- Pelletization capability enables global market access opportunities
- Technology provides solution for large-scale waste stream typically sent to landfills
- None.
Tear-off asphalt shingles are the discarded shingles collected when existing roofs are removed or replaced. These end-of-life shingles are typically directed to landfills for final disposal.
This follows the Company's previously announced milestone of producing liquid asphalt from manufacturing waste shingles on July 10, 2025. Manufactured waste shingles comprise those that for various design specifications or quality are not sold for commercial use and similar to tear-off shingles, are typically discarded into landfills.
With both manufacturing waste and tear-off shingles now successfully processed, Northstar has confirmed that its proprietary technology can recover high quality liquid asphalt from both types of feedstock.
"Tear-off shingles represent the largest portion of the shingle waste stream, and successfully producing liquid asphalt from this material is an important step for not only the
"In addition, we received the results from independent third-party labs confirming high quality specifications for the asphalt produced from both manufacturing waste and tear-off shingles. These results, combined with the facility's ability to process both types of feedstock delivers on the primary objective of the business - to reprocess waste shingles into high quality products to provide a compelling value proposition for customers and shareholders alike."
