🚨 Our first newsletter, The Hot Topic, is live! 🚨 In this edition, Amir Jafarmilajerdi, Randy West, Jhony Habbouche, Ph.D., P.E., and Maede Mottaghi share their perspectives on a pressing question in our field: 👉 Are recycled plastics in asphalt mixtures a sustainable solution, or are we just creating new “plastic pavement” problems? Recycled plastics are increasingly promoted as a sustainable solution in asphalt pavements. Yet, concerns remain about long-term performance. In your view, do the potential environmental benefits outweigh the risks of poor performance? Or do you see a niche where plastics can truly add value to asphalt technology?
