Sustainable practices have seen significant advancements across continents, with early adoption of technologies like Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) highlighting a global commitment to reducing environmental impact. The road to sustainability is paved with innovation, and Polyco is proud to be at the forefront of this journey. 

We believe that collaboration is the key to unlocking the full potential of sustainable solutions. By working hand-in-hand with global partners, we are accelerating the development and implementation of technologies that address pressing and costly environmental challenges. Our recent partnership with Grupo Brisa, Cepsa, and ISEL in Portugal is a prime example of this collaborative spirit.

Together, we’ve been exploring the transformative power of SigmaBond, our innovative rubberized asphalt modifier, creating more sustainable roads. SigmaBond offers many benefits, including improved road performance, extended pavement life, and reduced environmental impact. By incorporating recycled tires into the asphalt mix, we’re not only diverting waste from landfills but also enhancing a project’s overall sustainability.

The results of our recent project in Portugal have been remarkable, demonstrating SigmaBond’s effectiveness on a global scale. We’re excited to share the details in this issue of the Pavement Preservation Journal. This collaboration represents a significant step in our mission to create a greener future.

Stay tuned for more insights into our groundbreaking work and how we’re redefining the possibilities of sustainable infrastructure. Together, we can build a world where environmental responsibility and economic growth go hand-in-hand.
