FORTAfied Asphalt is Stronger Asphalt!

FORTAfied asphalt is stronger asphalt, and builds tougher roads that are both safer, and more fiscally responsible. Today, more than ever, using time and material resources responsibly is everyone's goal. FORTA-FI is uniquely capable of reinforcing all asphalt mixtures allowing for either less asphalt or longer life, which translates into reduced processing, reduced labor, reduced time and reduced logistics thereby reducing overall project cost.

PROJECT OWNER: City Painesville, OH SPECIFIER:   Painesville City Manager ASPHALT PAVER: Ronyak Paving - Burton, OH ASPHALT PRODUCER:  Osborne Grand River Asphalt - Grand River, OH ASPHALT TONNAGE: 400 tons   Featured Project: Munson Street Repave Painesville, OH The City of Painesville specified FORTA-FI® fiber-reinforcement for the asphalt used to repave Munson Street.  This street is a short connector route in an industrial zone that supports a variety of multiple-axle vehicle traffic.  Heavy loads, short turning distances, and the wear-and-tear of trailer staging caused premature asphalt cracking and rutting.  Assistant City Manager Doug Lewis selected FORTA-FI® fibers to three-dimensionally reinforce the paving material used in Munson Street.  Grand River Asphalt produced the pavement at their local batch plant, and Ronyak Brothers Paving completed the project with a top-quality placement.  A section of the road received asphalt curbing for drainage purposes, and after more than 12-months this feature has effectively stood-up to daily traffic and parking demands.  Painesville looked to FORTA Corporation to help them stretch their infrastructure dollars with the innovative asphalt reinforcement properties of FORTA-FI®!
