The long-term stability of rolled asphalt is markedly improved by the addition of Sasobit^®. Rut formation is prevented or minimised. The risk of aquaplaning is reduced. Accidents are avoided.
In short, Sasobit^® improves road safety.

The reduction in the viscosity of the asphalt mix means:

Improved compactibility. In some circumstances compaction is possible down to temperatures as low as 100° C.
A marked increase in the degree of compaction for the same roller loading.
Good compaction means longer service life.
A reduction in emissions e.g. bitumen fumes and aerosols.
Energy savings through temperature reductions of 20 to 30° C and also a decrease in damaging
CO₂ emissions.
