BIOREPAVATION News March 2018 : excellent results !!!!

Proof of concept done !

The innovative pavement mixes assessed in the BioRePavation international project behave better than conventional mix.

At the moment, after 1.2 million heavy loadings no damage can be observed on the 9 cm thick test tracks. 

There are now durable solutions, assessed by a full scale accelerated test, to build road using high rate recycling and involving biomaterials as additive or alternative to bitumen"
