The second edition of the event – the 2nd International Workshop on the Use of Biomaterials in Pavements – brought together experts, researchers, and practitioners from around the world to explore innovative approaches to sustainable pavement construction and maintenance through the integration of biomaterials.

​

The workshop served as a platform for sharing state-of-the-art research, technological breakthroughs, and practical applications involving biomaterials sourced from natural and sustainable origins. Key topics included the use of bio-based binders and additives, natural fibers and reinforcements, recycled biomass and waste materials, microbial soil stabilization, sustainability assessment, recyclability within a circular economy, and testing methods for performance evaluation.

​

The event reinforced the relevance of biomaterials in advancing pavement performance and sustainability, and consolidated the international community formed around this subject since the creation of BIOPAVING – “The International Association on the Use of Biomaterials in Pavements”.
