The VíasChile Group is part of this initiative organized by the Chile Asphalts Committee. This committee, formed in 2019, works on conveying and encouraging a technical understanding of asphalt among the different members of the industry.

This first congress, called “Promoting Sustainable Techniques,” was engaged in disclosing technologies that improve asphalt performance, the environmental commitment in production, materials and technological advances of companies.

VíasChile set up an information stand and Jorge Villarroel, the VíasChile Group’s Chief Technical Officer, spoke on the subject “VíasChile and the road to sustainability.” In that talk he discussed the sustainable road being followed by the Company that translates into actions such as the use of RAP, of tires in disuse in asphalt production, of warm mixes and CO₂ processing additives, among others.
