Sustainable technologies

Lower cost, less waste, the same performance.

Sustainability in pavement is an engineering decision, not a slogan. We evaluate recycled materials, reclaimed asphalt, warm-mix production and rubber modification on the same basis as everything else: does it perform, and does it fit the project?

Performance-based sustainability

Rubberized asphalt is not a one-size-fits-all solution.

Asphalt Tech Pro evaluates each project individually to determine whether rubber modification, recycled materials or conventional asphalt technologies are the best fit — based on specifications, performance goals and agency requirements.

Reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP)

Re-using milled pavement to reduce virgin material, cost and landfill — validated by performance testing.

Recycled materials

Recycled aggregates, shingles and other materials evaluated for compatibility and performance.

Warm-mix technologies

Lower production temperatures that cut energy use, emissions and improve workability.

Recycled tire rubber modification

Crumb-rubber as one possible binder modifier — an option, not a default.

Lifecycle cost reduction

Longer service life and lower maintenance, quantified with life-cycle cost analysis.

Waste & emissions reduction

Circular-economy strategies that keep materials in service and out of landfill.

One option in the portfolio

Rubberized asphalt, when it fits.

Recycled tire-rubber modification can deliver quieter, crack-resistant, long-life pavements — and our team has decades of research behind it. We recommend it only when the specifications, budget and performance goals justify it.

  • Proven durability

    Resistance to cracking, raveling and rutting in long-term field studies.

  • Quieter roads

    Average 5 dBA — up to 8 dBA — lower traffic noise where surface texture allows.

  • Waste diversion

    Beneficial re-use of scrap tires that would otherwise be landfilled.

  • Specification-driven

    Evaluated against agency standards and project performance targets.

Sustainable only counts if it performs.

Every sustainable option we recommend is checked against the project's specifications, traffic, climate and agency requirements — and validated in the laboratory before it reaches the road.
