PelletPAVE is typically used in gap or open graded mixes at an application rate of 20% - 40% (by weight of total binder) to meet an asphalt rubber binder requirement for viscosity, penetration, softening point and resilience.

PelletPAVE can be produced with any size/gradation of crumb rubber to meet local agency requirements
Convenient pelletized binder material eliminates the expensive equipment that was once needed for blending asphalt rubber binder at the hot mix plant site
At the time of use, the proportional amount of the PelletPAVE | AR is mixed, either through a RAP collar of a continuous drum plant or directly into the mixer of a batch plant where it melts and is blended with the heated aggregate to produce asphalt rubber modified hot mix
