OUR PROPRIETARY BIOCHAR-MINERAL MATRIX
ACLA® is a carbon-negative aggregate-like additive that stands up to the rigors of asphalt production and use.
More than just a carbon sink, our proprietary biochar-mineral matrix is a high performance additive that preserves the road's structural integrity while locking away carbon permanently.
LOWER CARBON. HIGH PERFORMANCE.
