Drywall & Gypsum Board Recycling

Andela Products offers innovative pulverizing systems that process drywall and gypsum boards efficiently — transforming them into piles of clean, reusable gypsum separated from paper fluff.

FACTS about Drywall & Gypsum Board Disposal

Recyclable, but Rarely Recycled: Although drywall and gypsum board is fully recyclable, most ends up in landfills due to contamination and limited recycling access.
Toxic Environmental Impact: In landfills, drywall and gypsum board can emit overpowering hydrogen sulfide gases.
Regulatory Pressure is Rising: Many regions are beginning to ban landfilling drywall and gypsum board with organic waste due to its hazardous emissions.

What Can Gypsum Be Used For?

New Drywall & Gypsum Board – replaces virgin gypsum in manufacturing
Industrial Products – used in plastics, sealants, and more
Cement Production – a vital ingredient in Portland cement
Soil Amendment – improves structure, boosts nutrients, and reduces erosion
Compost Additive – increases nutrient retention and aeration
Animal Bedding – enhances absorption and comfort

Why Pulverize with an Andela System?

To recycle or dispose of drywall and gypsum board responsibly, it must be pulverized and the paper content separated. That’s where Andela's systems shine. Our pulverizers, equipped with dust collectors, provide dust control as our patented flexible impactors reduce drywall and gypsum boards into gypsum fines and nuggets, while separating the paper fluff into a larger, easily recoverable form.
