Air quality is an issue that impacts people across the globe, particularly in cities. To minimise the impact on air quality when producing and laying asphalt – and not exacerbate air quality issues – we offer our customers a range of CleanAir reduced emission asphalt products.

CleanAir (Reduced emissions asphalt REA)

CleanAir helps to minimise the impact of asphalt production and laying on local air quality by reducing specific gases and particulate matter from asphalt mixtures, which is particularly beneficial for ultra-low emission zones.

It contains a specialist binder, which has been shown to reduce specific gases and particulate matter from asphalt mixes by an average of 40% compared to conventional bitumen and can be used in all of our asphalt products.
