Permastripe provides a long-lasting, colored pavement-marking product that also offers high retroreflectivity and high chromaticity retention. It is not a paint or epoxy coating but rather a polymer-modified composite, and it may be rapidly installed on damaged substrates. The product may be applied with a squeegee applicator or a specially designed pump and spray application device. If nighttime visibility is required glass beads can be pneumatically applied into the material for high-level retroreflectivity. PolyCon Manufacturing. www.polyconmfg.com.

Forta-Fi is a fiber blend for reinforcing asphalt that allows for the placement of up to 35% less asphalt when its blend of reinforcing fibers is added to the asphalt mixture. It also reduces rutting and cracking and lasts longer than unmodified asphalt. Three new blends have been formulated for hot-mix asphalt, warm-mix asphalt, and hot/cold patching. The reinforcing fibers, which distribute uniformly and evenly, come in bags that instantly melt into the mixture. A small dosage of Forta-Fi reinforces an entire ton of asphalt.

The product is made from nearly 60% recycled asphalt pavement, is odorless, and cleans up with only soap and water. It is applied directly from the package and does not require curing.
