Sripath Innovations exhibits during JRT 2026 in Nantes, France.

Sripath Innovations was delighted to exhibit and participate in the Journées Techniques Route (JTR) 2026 conference held on February 4-5, 2026 at La Cité des Congrès in Nantes, France. The JTR is a cornerstone event for professionals in the road infrastructure sector that brings together engineers, researchers, contractors, public administrators, and industry innovators to share the latest advancements in transport infrastructure and collaborate on key challenges facing the field.  

 

This year's program featured a wide range of technical sessions focused on critical topics such as decarbonization of transportation, urban road maintenance, material performance and durability, and the latest research in infrastructure sustainability. Attendees also had the opportunity to engage with poster presentations from emerging doctoral researchers, showcasing fresh perspectives and solutions for future infrastructure challenges.  

 

The Sripath Innovations team was energized by the enthusiasm and engagement from fellow attendees. The booth served as a hub for meaningful discussions on the most pressing concerns in the asphalt and bitumen industry including sustainable road construction practices, long-term performance, and cost-effective solutions for agency and contractor partners. It was especially rewarding to connect with leaders actively adopting forward-thinking approaches to infrastructure development and environmental stewardship. 

 

A central theme throughout JTR 2026 was the growing focus on sustainability in asphalt. As the asphalt industry accelerates efforts to reduce carbon emissions and conserve natural resources, techniques such as high reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) usage are gaining additional attention. Sripath Innovations continues to support this shift by promoting the use of recycled asphalt mixes dosed with effective rejuvenators like ReLIXER®, which help restore aged binder properties and extend pavement life in high-RAP applications without compromising performance. 

 

Another topic that drew significant interest was the implementation of warm mix asphalt (WMA) technologies, which enable asphalt production and placement at lower temperatures, reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions compared to traditional hot mixes. Products like PHALANX® warm mix additive are increasingly appealing to agencies aiming to meet sustainability goals while maintaining quality and durability. 

 

Sripath Innovations was pleased to exhibit at JTR 2026 and to participate in the dialogue shaping the future of roadway materials and practices. The team looks forward to continuing these collaborations and driving progress across the industry.
