This material is a product of recycling, which is one of the greatest environmentally-friendly practices around! One hundred percent of asphalt is recyclable and reusable in the paving industry, making it a greener alternative to consider.<\/p>\n<h1>Benefits<\/h1>\n<p>By recycling asphalt pavement, we not only conserve our Earths natural resources and reduce the need for more mining, we keep a 100% recyclable product out of landfills. RAP can be combined with a wide variety of asphalt mixes to be used for a wide variety of projects and applications. This allows for the best custom mix for the desired project, every time.<\/p>\n<p>Another wonderful benefit of recycled asphalt material is cost savings. RAP is cheaper than using brand new asphalt materials, which cuts the cost of the overall project for the property owner or city. This helps build the economy while helping to save townships and proprietor\u2019s money.<\/p>\n<h2>Indianapolis Asphalt Paving<\/h2>\n<p><div id=\"attachment_361\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aciindiana.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Asphalt-Pavers-Indianapolis.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-361\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aciindiana.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Asphalt-Pavers-Indianapolis-300x166.png\" alt=\"Asphalt Concrete Repair\" width=\"300\" height=\"166\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-361\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aciindiana.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Asphalt-Pavers-Indianapolis-300x166.png 300w, https:\/\/www.aciindiana.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Asphalt-Pavers-Indianapolis.png 316w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-361\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Asphalt  &#038; Concrete Pavers 317-549-1833<\/p><\/div>Call ACI Asphalt and Concrete Inc. at <strong>317-549-1833<\/strong> for professional <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aciindiana.com\" target=\"_blank\">Indianapolis asphalt paving<\/a> you can trust.
