On November 14th, 2024, Tipco Asphalt Public Company Limited (Tipco Asphalt) and University of Transport and Communications (UTC) signed Memorandum of Understanding for Academic Collaboration (MOU), with the aim to develop low-carbon footprint solutions for Vietnam's transport infrastructures with a focus on greenhouse gas emissions reduction, conservation of natural resources, and sustainability. The collaboration also aims to achieve higher excellence in academics, technology, and innovation.

ADCo, has been involved in the rehabilitation of a 32km segment of Highway 13 by using Cold in-place recycling technique with EcoStab® (ADStab®) emulsion for an important Heavy-duty traffic road. The Cold-in place recycling technique has been selected as the client was looking for a cost-effective solution that allows to re-use 100% of the in-situ materials with minimum disturbance to the traffic. 

ADCo/Tipco applied Microsurfacing technique on HW21B which has intensive traffic with speeds up to 80km/h and heavy vehicles to extend the service life of the road a couple of years, restore the skid resistance while protecting the pavement from moisture and improve the traffic safety    

The National Highway 5 is a strategic link from Hanoi to the port city of Hai Phong, carrying one of the busiest and heaviest traffic of Vietnam. The new construction of flyover on HW5A Hai Duong area will support the decongestion of traffic while accommodating the increase of goods transport between the two cities.   ADCo has been involved in providing high performance asphalt solutions for this new flyover construction on HW5A to sustain heavy duty traffic with high rutting resistance. The solution consisted in paving a 6cm surface course asphalt mix manufactured with Colflex® PG82, a high-performance modified bitumen with enhanced workability, capable to resist to extreme solicitations (both in terms of traffic and climate).   Thanks to its outstanding characteristics, the high durability of Colflex® PG82 binder allows significant reduction in pavement maintenance costs while providing more flexibility to the contractor through a wider range of working temperatures during construction.
