Verde Research Shows Enzyme Stabilizer Reduces Pavement Materials

Findings from the National Center for Asphalt Technology at Auburn University showed that Verde's proprietary enzyme-based soil stabilizer, TerraZyme®, performs comparably to conventional stabilization methods under heavy-truck loading. The enzyme-based section maintained performance through approximately 8 million equivalent single-axle loads while reducing base-layer cement content by about 61% and eliminating lime treatment.

The research indicates that using the enzyme stabilizer can significantly reduce the amount of conventional stabilizing materials required for pavement construction. This reduction also substantially lowers the embodied carbon emissions associated with building infrastructure.
