We propose to crush felled trees into chips that can be used as paving material in parks and other areas.

Wooden heated asphalt pavement (Harmony Road Wood) is a paving material made by chip processing construction waste wood and thinned wood, which is then mixed with asphalt and heated. It is mainly utilized in the exterior areas of buildings, including sidewalks in parks, jogging courses, cycling roads, and some parking lots. This technology effectively addresses heat island effects by utilizing the thermal insulation properties of wood and contributes to global warming mitigation by fixing CO2 in the pavement. It also provides a walking experience with reduced strain on knee joints due to its moderate elasticity, harmonizing with the natural environment. 【Features】 ○ Effective use of locally generated wood waste ○ Contributes to global warming prevention ○ Can be reused after initial use through re-heating ○ Effective in reducing total life cycle costs ○ More economical compared to resin-based wood chip pavements and rubber chip pavements For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
