Think of it like rebar for asphalt. Every great structure needs reinforcement. Concrete has rebar. Bases have used geogrids. Asphalt? It’s been missing reinforcement — until now.
ARCA ACE XP fibres put in 400,000 PSI of tensile strength into your mix, and it’s proven to mitigate cracking and rutting, the two biggest failures that cost taxpayers billions.
ARCA is not just an additive; it's a complete solution for superior asphalt performance. By integrating high-strength (400,000 PSI) aramid fibres into asphalt mixes, ACE XP™ creates a high tensile strength, crack-resistant pavement that exentds pavment life up to 50%
ARCA solutions are ideal for a wide range of projects, including:
Highways & Major Roads Streets & Municipal Pavements Airport Runways & Taxiways Overlays & Maintenance
ACE XP™ is designed to integrate seamlessly with Canadian asphalt specifications. We have special rovision specifications. for aramid fibre reinforcement in Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) projects across Canada, ensuring compliance and optimal performance utilizing the ASTM Standard D-8395-23.
