HIGH RAP PERFORMANCE

WITHOUT CRACKS

Long-Lasting Pavement for New Construction & Overlays

REARM integrates two essential products into one powerful solution:

1. Bio-Oil Rejuvenator: Restores and enhances the virgin binder properties of high RAP mixes.

2. ACE XP™ Polymer Fibers: Reinforces the combined virgin and RAP binder to boost tensile strength, reduce cracking, and improve rutting performance.

Together, these components produce a high RAP asphalt mix that meets or exceeds the performance of traditional virgin mixes.

Unlock Unmatched Durability and Performance with Surface Tech's ACE XP Aramid Fiber

Reinforcing High RAP Asphaltt for Performance and Longevity

Why does the ASTM standard matter?

REARM™ is a high-performance asphalt mix solution designed to maximize reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) usage while solving the problem of premature cracking common in high RAP mixes. By combining two powerful components — a highly engineered bio-oil rejuvenator and ACE XP™ Polymer Fibers — REARM delivers a stronger, more sustainable pavement with exceptional durability and cost savings.

This proven / tested approach enables asphalt producers and paving contractors to achieve optimized high RAP designs without changing their job mix formula (JMF) or requiring specialized equipment — all while meeting Build America, Buy America compliance and modern low-carbon specifications.
