Bituminous emulsions of Vilnius binder plant of AB Eurovia Lietuva

The EPDs gives environmental information about the production of bituminous emulsions, used in road pavement construction. These emulsions are made by blending bitumen with water and additives, ensuring stability and performance. The production involves heating water, mixing it with emulsifiers and additives, and combining it with hot bitumen in a colloid mill. The resulting emulsion is stored and transported for applications like tack coats, chip sealing, and hydraulically bound layers.

The emulsions are classified by application and composition, such as cationic or polymer-modified variants. This sustainable manufacturing process is supported by the use of renewable electricity, primarily solar energy, at the Vilnius plant in Lithuania. These products are recyclable and contribute to sustainable infrastructure development.
