CONCRETE PRODUCTS & CAST STONE68 CPI %u2013 Concrete Plant International %u2013 6 | 2025 www.cpi-worldwide.comResearch on Filter StabilityAustrian research highlights the importance of filter stability in unbound pavement layers. Proper interaction between joint and bedding materials is crucial to avoid material migration, reduced permeability, and structural deformations. Updated standards and test methods now aim to safeguard drainage capacity and structural integrity under traffic loads and precipitation.Climate-Adaptive SurfacesUrban heat islands are a growing challenge. A breakthrough in high-SRI (Solar Reflectance Index >90) roof tiles demonstrates how precast concrete can contribute to energy efficiency and thermal comfort. These tiles significantly reduce surface temperatures under solar exposure while complying with green building standards and %u201cCool Roof%u201d policies.International Perspectives and StandardsOn the regulatory side, the newly published AASHTO Guide for Interlocking and Permeable Pavements marks a milestone in North America. By recognizing these pavement types as viable alternatives to asphalt and concrete, the guide strengthens their institutional acceptance and paves the way for broader adoption.At the same time, novel carbonated cements offer pathways to radically lower CO2 emissions. These cements cure through carbonation, cutting curing times from weeks to hours and capturing over 25% of cement%u2019s weight in CO2 %u2014 an exciting prospect for climate-friendly industrial paving products.Trade exhibition with networking opportunities and insights into Indian block and paver productionA dedicated trade exhibition will be accessible for all attendees throughout both days right in front of the conference rooms.
