Green fibre in asphalt production

The asphalt should last longer and not have to be re-laid as often

A new cellulose fiber will be developed, together with a green binder that fits together with today’s Norwegian asphalt. The idea is that the asphalt should last longer and not have to be re-laid as often. The cellulose fiber will be made from residual raw material and will be adapted to Norwegian asphalt.
