The company said that Thermo Primer secures strong bonding between thermoplastic markings and surfaces with little or no bitumen. With the Thermo Primer you get faster drying time of the primer, so the application of the markings can be finished faster. The 4litre tin is also more easily opened. Also, Thermo Primer will be available in 20litre cans soon. From an environmental perspective, the GHS09: Environmental Hazard and the GHS08: Health Hazard are not on the Thermo Primer due to the improved formulation, noted the company.

    Stabilisers bring recycling improvements to roads in the UK and Armenia. The local road authorities near the UK city of Bath have saved nearly €250,500 on the cost of repairing a 400m long section of the B3110 Midford Road. This saving has been achieved by opting to recycle and strengthen in-situ the existing surface, instead of using conventional full depth pavement reconstruction.

    An ambitious objective has led to significant steps in the reuse of PA (porous asphalt). While the market incidentally produces PA with a maximum of 30% of recovered raw materials, BAM has introduced its own innovations, enabling more than 90% of raw materials to be reused. And this year, subsidies from the European Commission will enable the LE2AP demonstration project to be constructed: one kilometre of sustainable PA. Large-scale production is also being developed.
