History cold recycling

A Groundbreaking Technology on the Path to Success

From the modified road milling machine to the highly specialized cold recycling train – this summarizes the impressive history of the development of cold recycling technology at WIRTGEN. We have been fascinated by the tremendous potential of cold recycling since the very beginning – in the mid-1980s – and have played a key role in its development as a recognized technology leader ever since. So it goes without saying that we have paved the road to success with many innovative milestones. We also pioneered the use of foamed bitumen as a binding agent and have been leading the industry in the use of this innovative binding agent since the 1990s.

Our comprehensive support during construction projects has always been extremely important to us and a decisive factor in the method’s breakthrough.
