The Truth About Asphalt Pavement

For those of you that think asphalt is black, it’s not. It’s green! Green as in sustainable – and here’s why…

Asphalt pavements smooth surface creates less drag on the tires of vehicles, which enables them to consume less fuel and produce lower emissions. It’s also quiet, so on highways and freeways; noise walls don’t need to be constructed. Asphalt pavement surfaces are also safe, providing excellent gripping power. Plus, it’s durable, so the road may never need to be removed or replaces. But, do you know what the crowning jewel of asphalt is making it truly a sustainable product? Asphalt is one of the greatest renewable resources and is one of the most recycled materials in the United States.

Why Should You Care?

As a facility manager in Florida, chances are pretty good that your parking lot is made of asphalt. Why do you think that’s true? Well, here are some facts about asphalt that make it easy to understand why asphalt is the best choice for your facility:

It’s Cost Effective

Asphalt pavement gives the best return on investment of any paving material. When appropriately designed and constructed, an asphalt pavement may never need to be removed and replaced. The pavement structure will last indefinitely, so its value will also last indefinitely. With concrete, when the pavement reaches its design life, it cannot be rehabilitated cost-effectively.

It’s Environmentally Friendly

Asphalt is very porous surface creating an environmentally friendly tool for storm water management. The porous asphalt enables land development plans that are more inclusive of nature’s processes and sustainable. Additionally, asphalt conserves water, reduces runoff, promotes infiltration, which cleanses storm water, replenish aquifers, and protect streams.

It Works Around Your Schedule

It sounds like a funny statement to say that asphalt can work around your schedule – but it’s true. Asphalt pavement can be constructed quickly and at night so that your customers and/or tenants are disrupted as little as possible during peak traffic hours.
