Lower-Cost, Longer-Lasting Sustainable Asphalt
Modern Hydrogen has developed a new, sustainable pavement by blending captured carbon into asphalt. This additive, called Modern Carbon, reduces the use of petroleum binders, improves sustainability, and results in a stronger, longer-lasting pavement product.

Bill Gates paves a new road for carbon reduction in construction
“I filled a pothole—and reduced greenhouse gas emissions—during my incredible visit to Modern Hydrogen. With an innovative process that removes carbon from natural gas to get emissions-free hydrogen, Modern Hydrogen is decarbonizing the energy market. And by sequestering that carbon in asphalt used to build roads (and repair potholes), the company is decarbonizing the building materials market, too. I’m proud to have been an early investor in Modern Hydrogen, and I can’t wait to see what’s next.”
Bill Gates, Microsoft Founder & CEO
Modern Asphalt Products
Hot Mix
This foundational product is enhanced with Modern Carbon captured from biogas, RNG or natural gas, making it a premier choice for standard paving operations. Its strengthened composition ensures durability and longevity, providing a sustainable alternative without compromising performance.
Cold Patch
Tailored for repair and maintenance operations, including pothole filling, this product incorporates captured Modern Carbon to offer enhanced resilience and reliability. Its easy application and robustness make it an ideal solution for quick fixes that stand the test of time as well as rising temperatures.
Sealer
With an infusion of Modern Carbon, these sealers not only boast improved pigment and longevity but also contribute to the reduction of the carbon footprint associated with the maintenance and preservation of asphalt surfaces.
