New West Gypsum Recycling Process

New West Gypsum Recycling’s patented process is the cornerstone of recycling hundreds of millions of tonnes of gypsum material. NWGR has developed and refined an innovative and extremely efficient process to pulverize the gypsum core and remove the backing paper, leaving the recycled gypsumready for use.

The recycled gypsum is a high quality blend of pre- and post-consumer material, conveniently available for use in the manufacture of new drywall products. The paper backing material is baled and repurposed or reused. Materials like nails or screws are culled from the gypsum recycling process and moved through separate recycling streams. Importantly, there is no product degradation during the recycling process and gypsum is an ecofriendly product that is reused and recycled indefinitely.

Help reduce the need for new gypsum mining by recycling gypsum products, promoting sustainability and positive environmental benefits.
