Mix Design Time

It’s the off season! Hopefully you made it back from NAPA’s meeting in sunny Boca Raton safely. Around here the ice is falling and school keeps getting called off. Meanwhile our Technical Marketing Managers around the country are busy because it’s also MIX DESIGN SEASON.

Are you planning now to take advantage of the benefits of Evotherm WMA technology? Perusing our last monthly report, here’s what contractors around the country are working on:

Incorporating Evotherm into rubber mix designs
Planning a higher RAP study with Evotherm and Evoflex with the DOT
Talking to a sister company to learn how to eliminate 2 rollers from the paving train
Introducing RAS and Evoflex into mixes
Switching back to Evotherm after an ill-fated dalliance with another WMA technology
Evaluating the feasibility of converting from lime to 100% Evotherm WMA
Converting all possible projects to Evotherm WMA
Using the Evotherm calculator to identify value
Planning a field evaluation of Evotherm and Evoflex
Optimizing SMA mix to completely eliminate fibers
Installing a bulk Evotherm tank
Designing fiber-free OGFC + Evotherm mixes
Developing a porous pavement OGFC specification for low-volume roads with the County

The variety of projects going on across the country is really impressive. If you are working on something not listed, please add it via the comment box. If you don’t have any Evotherm WMA projects going on, should you?
