Crumb Rubber Asphalt Technology
EnviroPave Dry Process Crumb Rubber Modifier
EnviroPave Rubber Asphalt helps asphalt producers, road managers, agencies, and contractors improve asphalt performance, lower production costs, and put recycled tire rubber to productive use in modern pavement projects.
Designed as a practical alternative to traditional polymer-modified asphalt, EnviroPave gives infrastructure teams a cleaner, simpler way to produce high-performing rubberized asphalt through standard hot mix production.
Cost-Controlled Performance
Enhanced binder properties comparable to polymer modification while helping reduce material costs.
Cleaner Plant Handling
Lower mix viscosity can improve throughput, reduce buildup, and simplify production.
Recycled Tire Rubber Use
Dry-process technology puts scrap tire rubber to productive use in asphalt pavement.
Product Overview
What Is EnviroPave Rubber Asphalt?
EnviroPave is an innovative dry process crumb rubber modifier solution rooted in established technology that is gaining renewed traction across the U.S. It is created by grinding whole scrap automobile tires into crumb rubber, which is then incorporated into asphalt mixes and laid during paving.
As the largest market for recycled tires, rubberized asphalt puts approximately 220 million pounds, or around 12 million tires, to use each year. With rising interest, more states are rediscovering and refining this method to meet modern infrastructure demands.
EnviroPave Rubber Asphalt gives asphalt producers and road managers a practical way to improve pavement performance, support recycled tire use, and reduce reliance on more expensive modification methods.
Uses recycled crumb rubber from scrap automobile tires
Supports cost-effective asphalt modification
Can be incorporated into standard hot mix production processes
Well-suited for roadways, overlays, preservation work, and public-sector paving budgets
Why EnviroPave Matters
Why Choose EnviroPave Rubber Asphalt?
EnviroPave is a hot mix asphalt modification solution that is distinct from traditional liquid additives. Over 4 million tons of dry-process crumb rubber enhanced asphalt have delivered exceptional performance in demanding climates and traffic conditions for more than a decade.
Compared to polymer-modified asphalt, EnviroPave offers plant-side advantages. Polymer mixes can be sticky and difficult to handle, often leading to slower production and system buildup. EnviroPave is designed to run clean through your plant, improving efficiency and reducing operational headaches.

EnviroPave Process
How the EnviroPave Process Works
EnviroPave integrates into your existing hot mix production process without specialized equipment. Rubber particles interact with the asphalt binder during mixing and transport to produce a modified pavement at a lower cost.
Crumb Rubber Is Metered Into Production
The rubber modifier is added alongside other mix components during standard hot mix asphalt production.
Rubber Particles Interact With Binder
The rubber particles interact with the heated asphalt binder during mixing, storage, and transport.
Modified Pavement Is Produced
The result is a rubberized asphalt mix that can rival polymer-modified performance at a lower cost.

Rubberized Asphalt Technology
Dry-Process Technology Makes Rubberized Asphalt More Accessible
Traditional crumb rubber modification methods have faced challenges with cost, equipment requirements, and production complexity. Dry-process technology addresses these barriers by allowing rubber to be incorporated during standard mix production.
FAQ
EnviroPave Rubber Asphalt FAQ
What is EnviroPave?
EnviroPave is a dry-process asphalt modification technology that incorporates crumb rubber into hot mix asphalt production.
How is EnviroPave different from liquid asphalt additives?
EnviroPave is distinct from traditional liquid additives because the crumb rubber modifier is incorporated during standard hot mix production instead of being handled as a liquid modifier.
Does EnviroPave require specialized blending infrastructure?
No. EnviroPave is metered into the production process alongside other mix components, which helps eliminate the need for additional blending infrastructure.
Why do producers choose EnviroPave over polymer-modified asphalt?
EnviroPave can provide enhanced binder properties comparable to polymer modification while reducing material costs, improving plant throughput, simplifying handling, and reducing buildup.
Where is EnviroPave Rubber Asphalt most useful?
EnviroPave Rubber Asphalt is useful for roadways, overlays, preservation applications, and projects where durability, cost control, production efficiency, and thin-lift performance are important.
