The company says its process of turning waste plastic into an asphalt additive can help keep plastic out of landfills and incinerators and create stronger streets, all at reduced costs.

Sounds like a win-win. Based in Lockerbie a bit down the road from me. Great piece, love seeing some ingenuity like this to solve two problems with one solution.

Got me thinking about a company transforming plastic into fuel and gas. Afaik they can use the plastic and turn 80% of it into to gas for cars etc.

That's a great idea. It's great because U.S roads are in a horrible state and this not only improves them, but also is eco-friendly. Who knows if this doesn't become more common? More eco-friendly roads that make use of waste? Excellent!
