KPI-JCI and Astec Mobile Screens has been recognized for one of the 2012 Best New Products Top Rollouts from Better Roads Magazine for the company’s “Be FRAP Ready” Web site.

The “Be FRAP Ready” Web site (www.befrapready.com) was designed and produced by KPI-JCI and Astec Mobile Screens, and is intended to help producers in the aggregate recycling industry understand the benefits of fractionated reclaimed asphalt pavement (FRAP).

“The goal of the ’Be FRAP Ready’ Web site is to answer the most common questions that KPI-JCI and Astec Mobile Screens receives for those who want to incorporate FRAP into their operation,” said Lisa Carson, marketing manager of KPI-JCI and Astec Mobile Screens. “We know that by fractionating reclaimed asphalt, producers can be environmentally-friendly and put more money back in their wallet, all while maintaining a high-quality asphalt mix.”

The “Be FRAP Ready” Web site was selected as a top rollout for 2012 because of the prevalence of RAP in the industry and the usefulness of the Web site to consumers.

“Once a year, Better Roads’ editors assemble a collection of remarkable new products that make a significant different in the transportation infrastructure industry, our Top Rollout Awards,” said Joe Donald, vice president of sales of construction media. “ for the industry that recognizes companies, designers, engineers and production teams that deliver exceptional, head-turning products that stand out in a field that is filled — every year — with a very, very long list of outstanding candidates.”
