In addition to Pavement Maintenance Products, Wright also provides innovative, top-quality, tire rubber modified hot mix binders.  All hot mix products are governed by a common set of standards accepted and practiced throughout the country, called SHRP standards.  Wright’s tire rubber modified hot mix binders not only adhere to these standards, they also incorporate additional physical and rheometrical values that give the end-user the ability to understand and monitor the thorough “performance-ability” that these specially designed binders provide.

Wright’s tire rubber modified SHRP binders can be incorporated into any hot mix system in use throughout the industry.  These include, but are not limited to:

Wright’s tire rubber modified hot mix binders are polymer-modified asphalt cements that contain a minimum of 5% - 15% whole scrap ground tire rubber.  Utilizing the TRMAC™ process, the whole scrap tire rubber is completely integrated into the asphalt cement prior to modifying with SBS polymer.  The resulting final product is a homogenous, stable material that is shipped from the manufacturing terminal to the jobsite.  In addition, this product is singular in composition and resists the effects of aging and weathering.

These tire rubber modified hot mix binders provide excellent adhesion and outstanding cohesive strength in the final product.  When incorporating these binders into the hot mix manufacturing and laying process, there is no special equipment needed.  Standard construction equipment designed to handle polymer-modified asphalt cements will perform equally well with these binders and mixes.

When you combine the ease-of-use, superb performance and incomparable stability over time, you’ll find that Wright’s tire rubber modified hot mix binders are a superior, environmentally friendly alternative to conventional binders.
