Directa Plus to supply graphene for 250 km Italian motorway road surfacing project

Directa Plus has announced that its G+ graphene will be used in the asphalt for a 250 kilometer (km) motorway section in Italy, along with selected recycled hard plastics such as toys, fruit crates and litter bins, to make a product called Gipave. The contract to use the Gipave asphalt ‘supermodifier’ in the road surfacing of the A4 Torino-Milano motorway section was won by Directa’s Italian partner Iterchimica with motorway management and infrastructure specialist ASTM Group.  

Gipave uses Directa’s graphene to improve resistance and life span for road surfaces.
