Plastipave®

A sustainable approach to high quality asphalt products

Plastipave® is a long-lasting, cost-effective, and sustainable asphalt solution that addresses end-of-life plastic waste. Developed by Tynedale Roadstone, this innovative asphalt incorporates single-use plastic waste and rubber crumb from vehicle tyres, significantly reducing the need for virgin aggregates.

Our products are produced following our accredited quality system and the relevant British Standards or proprietary specifications, including the requirements of National Highways England.

Used by Rainton Construction on road surfacing schemes across the North East of England, Plastipave is paving the way for a more sustainable future. It is now standard practice on all projects as part of Durham County Council’s Framework for Surfacing and Planing. A scheme on the A689 in County Durham used our innovative material and this diverted the equivalent of over 230,000 plastic shopping bags from landfill.
