MacRebur Limited: Revolutionizing the Road Construction Industry
MacRebur Limited is a UK-based company that has been making waves in the road construction industry since its inception in 2016. The company's mission is to help solve two world problems with one simple solution - by reducing plastic waste and improving the quality of roads.
The idea behind MacRebur was born when Toby McCartney, one of the co-founders, was working in Southern India and saw people using plastic waste to fill potholes. He realized that this could be a viable solution for road construction as well. Along with his co-founders, Gordon Reid and Nick Burnett, he set out to create a product that would not only reduce plastic waste but also improve the quality of roads.
MacRebur's patented technology involves adding recycled plastic waste into asphalt mixtures used for road construction. This not only reduces the amount of plastic waste going into landfills but also improves the durability and lifespan of roads. The use of recycled plastics also reduces carbon emissions during production by up to 1 tonne per every tonne produced.
The company has already made significant strides in its mission to revolutionize road construction. Its products have been used on various projects across Europe, Asia, Australia, North America and South America including airports runways such as Heathrow Airport (London), Gatwick Airport (London), Sydney International Airport (Australia) among others; highways such as M6 motorway (UK), A9 highway (Scotland) among others; car parks such as Tesco Superstore Car Park (UK); residential areas such as housing estates across Scotland; commercial areas like industrial estates across UK among others.
One notable project where MacRebur's technology was used is Scotland's A9 highway upgrade project which involved upgrading 80 miles of single carriageway between Perth and Inverness into dual carriageway standard over an eight-year period at a cost of £3 billion. MacRebur's technology was used to resurface the road, and it is expected to last up to 60% longer than traditional asphalt.
MacRebur's products have also been tested and approved by various regulatory bodies such as the British Board of Agrément (BBA), which certifies construction products and systems for their quality, safety, and reliability.
The company has received numerous accolades for its innovative approach to road construction. In 2018, it won the prestigious Virgin Media Business VOOM competition, beating over 2,500 other businesses in the process. It has also been recognized by various organizations such as The Ellen MacArthur Foundation which promotes a circular economy that designs out waste and pollution.
In conclusion, MacRebur Limited is a company that is making significant strides in revolutionizing road construction through its patented technology that reduces plastic waste while improving the quality of roads. Its products have already been used on various projects across different continents with impressive results. With its innovative approach to road construction, MacRebur Limited is well-positioned to become a leader in this industry while helping solve two world problems with one simple solution - reducing plastic waste and improving roads' durability.
