Life Cycle Assessment of Asphalt Using Crumb Rubber Pavement
We're thrilled with our brand-new Heatec, an Astec Brand additive tank and a state-of-the-art Meeker Equipment Company, Inc. reverse air baghouse at our Fishkill plant! These additions mark another step forward in our commitment to innovation and environmental responsibility. 🌱 With these enhancements, we're ready to ramp up production and meet the demands of the pothole-filling season. Our Fishkill plant is poised to ship up to 350 tons of asphalt per hour, offering various types from porous to warm mixes to custom blends. 🚛 Notably, in the previous winter, we upgraded our plant with new burner and silo technologies. Now, at the peak of the paving season, we can load pavement trailers and trucks within three minutes, ensuring efficiency and productivity like never before! ⏱️ Thalle Industries remains dedicated to providing top-quality asphalt products while prioritizing sustainability and environmental stewardship. We're excited about the possibilities these advancements bring and look forward to continuing to serve the construction industry with excellence. 💼 Read more in Haley Rischar’s article in Construction & Demolition Recycling magazine: https://lnkd.in/eKX7WtGT #ThalleIndustries #ConstructionIndustry #Innovation #EnvironmentalResponsibility #PavingSeason2024 #AsphaltTechnology

It might be time for you to switch to warm mix asphalt at your plant. NAPA's research suggests that with 10 degrees of temperature, reduction comes 2-3% fuel consumption #savings. If you have been thinking about using warm mix #asphalt, check out this article by Brandon Noel. Asphalt Contractor Magazine #construction #warmmixasphalt #napa #january #tuesday

Let's roll with today's fun fact, featuring the fascinating world of cement trucks: Did you know that the average cement truck can carry enough concrete to fill around 20 bathtubs? That's a whole lot of building power on wheels! Stephen Stepanian developed and applied to patent the first motorized transit mixer in 1916, to replace the horse-drawn concrete mixer used at the time. Concrete is made by combining the three ingredients in a mixer, whether that mixer is stationary or driving down the road. The water is absorbed by the cement, which then binds the aggregate together, creating concrete. #pcm #phoenixconstruction #cementtrucks
This remains one of the coolest videos I have seen. It is incredible a technology that is so earth friendly and so benign to humans (it is not caustic like so many other products on the market); can make such a huge impact on old concrete. Check it out, and reach out with questions. Edyston makes it so easy, it walks you through evaluating your concrete and coming up with a solution. It is not about ripping and replacing, it is about restoring the concrete that is already here. Lets make the shift, out with the new and in with the old! #goinggreen #greenconstruction #greenconcrete #carbonneutral #carbonreduction #carbonneutrality #carbonfootprint #edyston #edystonconcrete #saveyourconcrete #concrete #concreteconstruction #constructionindustry #concreteindustry #concretelife #construction #civilengineering #civilengineer #saveenergy #savetheplanet
