The Hanson era® production process allows a wide range of Hanson’s base, binder and surface course asphalts to be produced at a temperature of 80-95ºC – giving a reduction in carbon emissions of up to 50% compared with equivalent hot-mix materials. |
It can also use up to 50% recycled content, while the asphalt itself is 100% recyclable, producing a greener asphalt to help meet the environment targets of today’s road building projects.
