Life

1 of 1 | Life sustainable asphalt

Breathing new Life into asphalt
Life is a revolutionary sustainable, foamed mix process that provides the engineering performance of hot mix asphalt yet can be produced and laid at reduced temperatures. Life asphalt technology provides up to an impressive 45% reduction in carbon emissions per tonne.

Key benefits

Dramatically reducing energy consumption with up to an impressive 45% reduction per tonne in carbon emissions
Enhanced durability through reduced binder aging and long term performance. Standard asphalts will harden by up to 40%. The Life process can reduce this by up to 70%
Same stiffness and permanent deformation as hot mix asphalt
Good workability and compaction at reduced temperatures
Life is laid using conventional surfacing equipment and laying techniques
Life can be produced using BS EN Standard descriptions, gradings and binder contents
Life can be used in base, binder and more importantly surface course layers
