Posillico Widens Its Aggregates

Farmingdale, New York-based Posillico Inc. has invested in a new 20 tons per hour hydrovac materials washing plant for its recycling facility on Long Island in New York.

The company has commissioned a new Hydro:Tip unit to recover what equipment provider CDE calls “high-value, in-spec recycled sand and aggregates from waste muds, fluids and clays – byproducts generated from the hydro excavation process.”

Established in 1946, Posillico Inc. is a fourth-generation family business that provides a range of integrated services including heavy civil work for the public and private sectors to environmental remediation, paving, drilling and utilities contracting.

In 2019, Posillico partnered with wet processing industry supplier CDE to remove contaminants and extract value from contaminated soil that formerly had been destined for landfills. “The Posillico team understood that with the right technology this material could be processed, generating new revenue streams while simultaneously producing in-spec secondary sand and aggregate products for the construction industry in New York,” states CDE.
