The Road Passion

As a recent project in Lithuania has shown, Benninghoven is also well-known in the Baltic States as a solution-focused business partner. The implementation of a modern BLS 4 control system has made the existing plant operated by asphalt producer Alkesta fit for the future again.

A Wirtgen SP 15i produced curbs and gutters for a new housing development in Springfield, Oregon. During the project, the AutoPilot 2.0 integrated machine control system significantly speeded up the construction process by eliminating the considerable time and effort otherwise required for surveying and setting up and breaking down physical stringlines. The result: a reduced workload, lower costs, and higher precision.

Northeast Paving relied on powerful machine technology from Vögele for the rehabilitation of a section of Runway 9-27 at Washington County Airport. Designed especially for the North American market, the SUPER 2000-3i with a VR 600 extending screed ensured precise paving and high surface quality. The result: a perfect runway surface that fulfills the strictest safety standards.

Top asphalt quality for fast cars: The Russian construction company Tekhalyans, responsible for resurfacing and maintaining the Sochi Autodrom, relies on the new high-tech TBA 3000 plant for this work. A high mixing capacity, more process reliability, less energy consumption and resource-friendly use of recycled materials – these aspects speak for themselves. Top quality for top speeds up to 320 km/h!
