Why ExxonMobil sustainability

ExxonMobil recognizes the importance of addressing sustainability in today’s global marketplace – balancing economic growth, social development and environmental protection, so that future generations are not compromised by actions taken today. We manage the challenge of sustainability as part of our focused commitment to act as a responsible employer, business partner and neighbor. Through our products, processes and people, we put sustainability in motion.

Leveraging our industry-leading technology and engineering resources, we offer some of the most innovative products and services that help deliver tangible performance- and sustainability-related benefits.

Our asphalt products are no exception. ExxonMobil produces asphalt binders primarily used in road building. We ensure that our base asphalts can be used in conjunction with paving industry technologies and products that help support sustainability in a number of ways.

Recyclable Products

Roads built with our paving asphalt grades are fully recyclable, thereby reducing the need for virgin gravels. Road builders can mill and re-use our asphalt, preserving natural resources and reducing additional quarrying and transport. All of this reduces landfill waste and helps increase cost effectiveness.

Long Pavement Life

Long-life pavements engineered with polymer modification, like Flexxipave PMA, have outstanding durability and long in-service life cycles. They can withstand heavy traffic and extreme weather conditions such as very hot summers and freezing winters.

Responsible Operations

In addition to our products and technology, our manufacturing processes and business operations are put into place with sustainability in mind. We take great pride in ensuring our practices meet or exceed industry regulations to minimize environmental impact and keep our employees safe. Industry leading operations integrity management systems reduce spills and emissions and our cost-effective technologies reduce, reuse and recycle water and manage waste.
