Eco Materials LLC

What Eco Materials LLC does

Eco Materials LLC is a privately held Philadelphia-based operator of the Eco Materials Wash Plant, an industrial soil-wash facility that opened in March 2025 on Passyunk Avenue in South Philadelphia. Founded in 2022 by Andrew Paluszkiewicz and Ken Griffin, the company processes contaminated and non-hazardous construction, excavation, and remediation soils through an environmentally friendly wet-process that uses a closed-loop water system with zero municipal discharge and recovers ferrous metals via magnets.

The facility regenerates more than 85% of inbound material into PADEP-compliant washed aggregates, including #57 3/4" stone, #8 3/8" stone, C33 coarse concrete sand, fine mason sand, contractor stone, and contractor ballast. At full capacity the plant is designed to process 2,000 tons per day (up to 700,000 tons annually), and a subsurface stormwater basin can capture up to 200,000 gallons per storm event, reducing public water supply demand by 10%.

Eco Materials generates revenue through two tonnage-based streams: per-ton disposal/processing fees from construction, remediation, and excavation firms bringing material to the site, and per-ton sales of recycled aggregates back to construction, landscaping, and developer buyers. Distribution is regional B2B direct sales across the PA/NJ/DE tri-state market, supported by a commercial credit application process, PADEP Form U compliance documentation, and memberships in BIA, CDRA, and NSSGA.
