Sustainability
Bitumen emulsions manufactured by the Road Emulsion Association members are by nature cold and sustainable products.
Those emulsions are a significant and important part of many road surface treatment processes and provide real sustainable alternatives to highway structural maintenance and reconstruction by offering solutions that are less energy intensive and generate minimum or no waste. This helps highway authorities and other clients to meet carbon reduction obligations.
In addition, processes containing bitumen emulsions provide considerable cost economies that enable national and local highway authorities and other clients to get best value for their pressurised budgets.
