CALGARY, AB, July 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Northstar Clean Technologies Inc. (TSXV: ROOF) (OTCQB: ROOOF) ("Northstar" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an operational update on the continued ramp-up of its Empower Calgary Facility ("Empower Calgary" or the "Facility") during the month of June.
During June, Empower Calgary exceeded its interim processing target of 100 tonnes of asphalt shingles per day ("tpd"), with peak processing during the period exceeding 120tpd. This marks an important operational milestone as the Company closes in on ERA Milestone 4 and advances towards steady-state commercial production. The achievement reflects the performance of the debottlenecking optimizations made after the 80tpd achievement which will be incorporated into future facilities.
Northstar also completed multiple commercial deliveries of liquid asphalt to McAsphalt Industries Ltd. ("McAsphalt"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Colas Canada Inc., during June. While the Company is not disclosing specific shipment volumes, the deliveries represent ongoing sales of recovered liquid asphalt produced at Empower Calgary and support the continued validation of Northstar's liquid asphalt output from commercial partners.
"We are very pleased with the continued operational progress at our Calgary facility. Both the production increases and commercial product sales mark important milestones in the development of the Company," said Aidan Mills, CEO of Northstar. "The core IP is working well, and the debottlenecking adjustments have put us in a strong position to achieve ERA Milestone 4 during Q3. All system improvements are being incorporated into final engineering for the next plants, and we look forward to sharing more information regarding planned growth in Q3."
About Northstar
Northstar is a Canadian waste to value technology company focused on the sustainable recovery and reprocessing of asphalt shingles. Northstar developed and owns a proprietary design process for taking discarded asphalt shingles, otherwise destined for already over-crowded landfills, and extracts the liquid asphalt for use in new hot mix asphalt shingle manufacturing and asphalt flat roof systems while also extracting aggregate, limestone and fiber for use in construction products and other industrial applications. Focused on the circular economy, Northstar plans to reprocess used or defective asphalt shingle waste back into its four primary components for reuse/resale with its first commercial scale up facility in Calgary, Alberta. As an emerging innovator in sustainable processing, Northstar's mission aims at leading the recovery and reprocessing of asphalt shingles in North America that would otherwise be sent to landfill addressing numerous stakeholder objectives.
