• With cold recycling, the final performances of the asphalt material are
not similar to virgin Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA)
• The HWF bitumen technology results in a reduction in production
capacity of the plant. Most mixture types being produced using HWF
technology require substantial application of binder to be foamed, which
takes extra time.
• Although the HW foamed mix does not provide the same compressive
strength as the equivalent HMA at temperatures lower than 25°C, the
HW mix has comparable compressive strength at higher temperatures.
