Read our case study
After years of development and testing our instant bitumen is shipping at scale.
This was our „Moon landing“ or less theatrical our industrial proof of concept
The Challenge
On 27th of July 2021, for the first time in history a cold, non-refinery derived bitumen has been composed from two separate cold ingredients – in situ – in the hot mix ashalt plant to successfully create a high performance asphalt, containing 85% RAP.
Fun fact. At this very moment B2SQUARE was not even born yet.
Our Solution
Together with MHI AG we produced a surface course asphalt (0/16) with 85% Recycled Asphalt Pavement containing 3.7% of aged binder with 15% of virgin aggregate and 1.5% Instant Bitumen.
The results
- The final asphalt is meeting is fully meeting the client’s expectations. No modifications of the asphalt plant were necessary.
- Carbon emissions have been reduced by more than 50% compared to conventional asphalt mixing and paving.
- No waste
- No heated bitumen product to transport and handle
- The Instant Bitumen recipe exactly compliment the properties the „old“ conventional bitumen from the RAP.
Let's pave the road to net zero.
