What is the biggest problem facing pavement engineers? The universal answer is not enough money to construct and maintain the entire road system. Asphalt emulsion technology makes possible the applications that prolong pavement life at lower life cycle costs. Today’s asphalt emulsions are the most environmentally sound, energy efficient and cost effective products used in pavement maintenance, pavement preservation and new construction.

History teaches that change is the catalyst for learning and innovation. Today, the asphalt industry is experiencing unprecedented change. AEMA believes that agencies will be seeking solutions to new challenges created by this change and that emulsion science can play a major role in the solutions.
