RECYCOL

In situ pavement recycling

RECYCOL

Recycol is the in situ recycling solution. It breathes a new lease of life into pavements that are damaged or at the end of their life cycle.
Existing materials are drilled up, mixed and homogenized with a binder before being laid down again and compacted using specific equipment.
Recycol is a sustainable solution, offering road assets a second lease of life whilst also conserving non-renewable natural resources.

In order to ensure performance levels on a par with those obtained with a traditional reinforcement solution, preliminary studies are carried out on the section of pavement in question to determine the treatment parameters.
Recycol is suitable for the surfacing and sub-grade courses of all pavement types up to T1 traffic.

Depending on the goals of the project as well as the context (as revealed by preliminary analyses of the existing pavement: thickness of the courses already in place, nature and characteristics of the materials), in situ recycling can be done with:

Recycol E

In-situ recycling with asphalt emulsion.

Carbon footprint reduced by average 70% compared to a GB3 reference solution with 30% recycled asphalt aggregate

Recycol H

In-place recycling with hydraulic binder

Recycol M

In-situ recycling with mixed binder (asphalt emulsion and hydraulic binder)

Recycol F

In-place recycling with foamed bitumen

Carbon footprint reduced by average 35% compared to a GB3 reference solution with 30% recycled asphalt aggregate
