Ringway Jacobs trials graphene additive on Essex roads

Ringway Jacobs and Eurovia are trialling the use of graphene on a road resurfacing job for Essex County Council in Chelmsford.
They are using Italian developed technology called Gipave which adds graphene to hot rolled asphalt (HRA) at Eurovia’s east London manufacturing facility.
The addition of graphene makes  the asphalt far less susceptible both to hardening and cracking in cold temperatures and softening in warm temperatures. It also increases the elasticity and strength to reduc
