BigDor is a rubber modifier for bitumen and asphalt. A uniquely developed technology that, by combining with recycled tire rubber, provides an
enveloping structure. The closed cell system is resistant to moisture and vibration loads due to its high elasticity to deformation, which solves a
number of specific problems associated with asphalt and: Capital costs, Environment, Health, Time spent on work, Duration of use.
Recycling involves old tires that do not decompose when lying in landfills, subsequently forming fires, which also makes it possible to recycle old
asphalt.
Up to 57% by reducing the asphalt laying temperature to 150°C.
Capital expenditures: cost reduction by 25-35%.Due to the ability to lay a thinner layer of asphalt and the cost of products.
In terms of the time spent on laying asphalt, there is also a halving of the time, since the number of rounds of piercing the asphalt with a roller has been
halved.
Reduce sticking to bucket and truck by 84%.
The technology allows reducing the amount of transported building materials.
The closed-cell system is resistant to moisture and vibration loads due to its high elasticity to deformation
Due to the presence of recycled tire rubber in the modifier, it reduces the braking distance, and this also affects the reduction in the rate of aging of
bitumen under the influence of UV radiation.
The temperature capacity of bitumen increases and the number of ruts formed in hot climates decreases.
We conducted a study of molecules “under the influence of heavy weight”, which in a microscope showed: a decrease in weight under load and a return
to its original form after the disappearance of the same weight. Accordingly, this technology reduces the risk of cracks.
An interesting observation was also noted in terms of its impact on health: This technology reduces road noise by 3 dB, which for a person feels like
twice as much!
In everyday life, when laying asphalt, large amounts of VOC are released into the atmosphere, which pollutes the environment and exposes workers to
the occupational disease of respiratory tract cancer. We were able to reduce the health impact of VOC emissions by 57%.
Tests were carried out as intended for hot and cold climates.
Our technology is patented.The technology was created on the basis of comparative analysis of European standards and German road construction
norms and regulations.
The testing process of the finished modifier lasted two years and cost more than 230 thousand euros.
We are ready to provide all the necessary expertise reports, our detailed experiments and complete calculations.
The technology was recognised by INGENIEURGRUPPE PTM GmbH as a new generation of rubber-based bitumen modifiers
About 1.6 million euros have been invested in the development of BigDor over 8 years to bring the formulation and the production and application
technology to industrial use.
Guarantee for 12 years.
