Everyone deserves to breathe clean, quality air. TAMKO has one of the most robust workplace air monitoring and industrial hygiene programs in our industry. Our goal is full compliance with all air quality regulations. TAMKO has invested heavily over many years to continue our efforts to promote air quality at our Dallas location.

Absolutely. TAMKO employs a diverse team of more than 100 Texans from the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Many of them have been with TAMKO for many years. We would welcome all applications from members of the South Dallas community (and all communities).

Yes! TAMKO strongly supports South Dallas communities and has given more than $200,000 in the past five years to South Dallas organizations including the Melissa Pierce Project, Joppy Momma’s Farm, Circle Ten Boy Scouts, and Joppee Wildlife Institute, among others. TAMKO has a history of generous community and non-profit donations across the U.S. TAMKO makes no decisions based on the race or ethnicity of any people or community and supports a healthy Dallas for all residents and especially those near its facility.

Always. TAMKO has always maintained necessary permits and government approvals throughout its history in Dallas. TAMKO’s property was already zoned industrial when TAMKO acquired it and TAMKO has maintained all necessary environmental permitting during its nearly 40-year history in Dallas.

Yes. TAMKO strives to be in 100% compliance, 100% of the time. TAMKO has invested heavily in environmental controls at the Dallas plant for many years and improved processes to continue to operate sustainably and safely. TAMKO has state-of-the-art environmental capture and control systems, including an ultra-low NOx thermal oxidizer. These new systems have significantly reduced TAMKO’s emissions, including 45% reductions in VOCs, PM2.5, and Sulfur Dioxide.

No. The Dallas facility is part of TAMKO Building Products LLC and has no connections to other shingle manufacturers in Dallas.

Yes. TAMKO works with appropriate recycle and disposal facilities to safely dispose of or recycle as needed. TAMKO fully supports safe and sustainable operations and disposal practices and has recently made a significant investment in Northstar Clean Technologies, a Canadian-based clean technology company focused on the sustainable recovery and reprocessing of asphalt shingle waste. Access to Northstar’s technology and processed materials will allow TAMKO to bring more sustainable products to market and divert even more waste from landfills.

No. TAMKO had nothing to do with the “Shingle Mountain” incident and strongly condemns what happened there, as well as any other examples of improper waste disposal.

Yes. We strive for safety and sustainability in all we do.

In just a 5-year span (2013-2019), TAMKO nationwide used 1.1 billion pounds of recycled materials to develop new, innovative products, while an additional 54 million pounds of material was reused by reintroducing it back into production rather going to a landfill. Since 2005, when TAMKO implemented its ZISC program (Zero Incident Safety Culture), the company has experienced a 88% reduction in the number of OSHA recordable injuries. In 2023, TAMKO invested heavily to partner with Northstar Clean Technologies, a company focused on sustainable recovery and reprocessing of asphalt shingle waste, to help bring their technology into US facilities.
