Why waste plastic in road asphalting?
Reusing plastic waste in asphalting keeps waste out of dumps while giving the road surface a water resistant character. The Indian Road Congress has added a code, IRC-SP:98-2013, regarding plastic waste usage, which supports this approach for road building.
- Patented, scientific and environment friendly process
- Feasible for urban municipal waste streams
- Supported by Indian Road Congress code IRC-SP:98-2013
Material and Mix Design
The waste plastic content used in the bituminous mix is proportioned through the Marshall Method, and the study records the materials selected for the trial.

Product Outcomes
Three outcomes define the current product offering of the company.
Longer Lasting Surfaces
Long lasting roads built from waste plastic form part of the company service offering for better infrastructure.
Lesser Plastic, Better Future
Future is Better.. Plastic is Lesser Optimum — the guiding idea behind diverting plastic waste away from dumping grounds.
A better and green world
Nine Dry Waste Collection Centers of Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) were functional under a PPP model, and a training programme was conducted for 900 Sanitary Workers of BBMP in the Bommonahalli Zone, Bangalore. These municipal engagements sit alongside the company’s product work on plastic waste roads.
