Bio resource resin (BR2)

A resin family, not a single grade

Bio-oil is formulated into a versatile group of resins. Each one is aimed at an application that already consumes material at industrial scale, so the bio-based feedstream has somewhere to go.

Road construction

Asphalt modifiers & binders

A binder and modifier stream derived from reformed livestock solids rather than from crude oil — for producers whose feedstock cost and feedstock risk both matter.

Asphalt is one of the largest single uses of petroleum-derived binder in the built environment, which makes it a natural destination for a bio-based resin. The resin is formulated to work within an established mix design rather than asking a paving programme to change what it does.

Engagement

How a product conversation usually runs

  1. Describe the application

    The specification you are trying to hit, and the property that matters most — adhesion, cure time, release rate, durability.

  2. Feedstock assessment

    We look at the waste stream available to you and what it implies for formulation.

  3. Sample and trial

    Candidate resins are supplied for bench or pilot evaluation against your own test method.

  4. Supply discussion

    Volumes, logistics and specification sheets, once the trial result is in.

What we publish

Application areas, the feedstream, and the process principles. Specification sheets are provided per application.

What we do not publish

Reaction conditions and resin formulations. These are shared with qualified partners under confidentiality.

Team size

NuVention Solutions is a small company — ten people or fewer — so engagements are handled individually rather than through a sales channel.
