Nationwide Foam Recycling

What Nationwide Foam Recycling does

Nationwide Foam Recycling is a US-based waste management company founded in 2007 and headquartered in Framingham, Massachusetts. It provides recycling services for rigid foam insulation (EPS, XPS, polyisocyanurate, and composite boards) and single-ply roofing membranes (EPDM, TPO, PVC) generated by commercial re-roofing projects and manufacturer facilities. The company also accepts supplementary roofing materials such as concrete pavers, solar blocks, Densdeck, slate, and roofing tiles. Operations span North America, with pickups executed via flatbed trailers directly from job sites and manufacturer locations, and quotes typically returned within four hours.

The business model is a transaction-based recycling service: customers (commercial roofing contractors, architects and engineers, foam/membrane manufacturers, and building owners) request quotes via phone or web form, receive all-inclusive per-project pricing, and schedule pickups. Pricing is commonly below landfill disposal cost, positioning the service as a cost-saving, sustainability-enhancing alternative that supports LEED and ESG initiatives. Complementary offerings include load calculation tools, a tiered Recycling Recognition Program (Bronze through Platinum), and a case studies library. The company sells direct with no intermediary distribution.

Revenue mechanics are anchored on volume processed, with named enterprise customers including Boeing, Walmart, Microsoft, Dollar General, Kohl's, Pet Smart, Frito Lay, and Sara Lee, alongside government accounts such as Naval Air Station Nevada. The company is privately held, has 1–10 employees, and operates with no disclosed outside funding; its principal strategic alliance is a referral partnership with Carlisle SynTec's CSL Materials division in Texas. Since inception it has recycled millions of pounds of material across thousands of projects in more than 40 US states and Canada.
