Featured Article: How Scrap Tires Are Revolutionizing Pavement Preservation
At Polyco, we’ve successfully diverted over 1.5 million end-of-life rubber tires from landfills, transforming them into valuable resources for our roofing and paving projects. This innovative approach is driving widespread sustainability efforts. The use of rubberized asphalt helps contribute to a circular economy by continuously upcycling reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP), reclaimed asphalt shingles (RAS), and recycled tire rubber (RTR).
While rubberized hot-mix asphalt solutions are always evolving, SigmaBond stands apart. Our flagship product reimagines the potential of tires by incorporating them into high-performance asphalt formulations. Our asphalt modifier shines for its ability to incorporate up to 40% scrap tire rubber, leveraging the resilient properties of carbon black. This innovative product demonstrates superior fatigue resistance and can significantly reduce construction costs compared to other rubber-modified asphalts.
If you would like to learn more about the benefits of SigmaBond, read our featured article in the Summer 2024 issue of Pavement Preservation Journal.
