NewRoad® Green Hybrid Concrete Additives
NewRoad® polymers bring new capabilities to concrete while reducing its carbon footprint and emissions significantly. Precisely engineered and manufactured NewRoad® aggregate replacement produces lightweight, high tensile and compression strength mixes that hydrate quickly; absorb vibration and sound; and add insulation R-value to walls, floors, ceilings and roofs - all while repurposing waste plastic and industrial polymers. For example, a standard 32 lb. concrete block with NewRoad® can weigh as little as 12 lbs. while retaining structural strength.
Highly engineered blends of recycled polymers:
NewRoad® additives are scientifically designed, highly-engineered blends of RECYCLED industrial and structural polymers, saving plastics from the landfill and improving concrete performance.

The Science
Concrete is the second most widely-used material in the world next to water, and if the concrete industry were a country, it would be the third largest carbon-dioxide emitter in the world.
NewRoad® uses Recycled Hybrid-Polymer/Plastic-Based additives, which eliminate the need for conventional concrete additives while cleaning up plastic waste and the environment.

NewRoad® Concrete
Improved Performance
1. Lightweight concrete: faster, cheaper, more per truckload
2. Lego Assembly: two humans can build a house
3. Fire, hurricane, mold, water, earthquake, and sound-proof
4. Polymers Provide High R-Factor = no insulation cost
5. Block requires no mortar, no masonry labor cost
6. Eliminate furring strips, vapor barrier & labor costs
7. Hurricane proof internal concrete/rebar grid
8. 20-70% lighter than normal block = lower cost shipping
9. Less cement = less pollution
10. Typical 4,000-5,600 psi strength vs. 4000 psi standard
