The solution
Pioneering Rubber Pave was laid on site for the first time across any project in the North West along with HALO’s warm mix asphalt. The industry-first rubber course was laid on the carparks across the site in an enhanced environmental commitment across the project. Rubber Pave contains the rubber from recycled tyres resulting in a carbon saving of up to 8%.
HALO is a sustainable alternative to conventional asphalts. It is a low temperature base and binder containing recycled materials revolutionising the surfacing industry by creating a carbon-friendly product that offers exceptional performance and laying times compared to conventional asphalts.
