Skill Front Entrepreneur Magazine Interviews the CEO of K31 Road Engineering

We talked to K31 Road Engineering, LLC.’s CEO Rainer Piel about K31 Road Engineering, LLC., the leading international road manufacturer, supplier, and construction consultant, with K31 Dealer-Branches worldwide and clients in 46 countries and growing monthly. K31 Road Engineering, LLC. is the original manufacturer and global supplier of K31-APS acrylic co-polymer soil stabilizers for road construction and erosion control and dust control. K31 is also the manufacturer and global supplier of K31-CAP cold polymer modified bitumen to make cold mix asphalt using a simple concrete mixer road repair and full road construction, without the huge expense of an asphalt plant.

First of all, how are you and your family doing in these COVID-19 times?

Thank you for asking, we are all doing very well. My wife and I already experienced Covid but luckily it only lasted 3-4 days with the symptoms. My elderly parents who live in Miami have been blessed to have avoided being infected by being very careful all this time. But when you have to travel as I do, it’s kind of hard to avoid it.

How does your company innovate?

We have pulled back the curtain of this industry creating dozens of videos and articles showing step by step how to use soil stabilization to build roads, dust control, and erosion control using K31-APS vinyl acrylic co-polymer.

Also, we have put out a lot of content on how to work with cold mix asphalt and how to apply it for pothole repairs and to build full roads using K31-CAP polymer-modified cold bitumen.

Wherever in the world I and members of our team travel we always encounter someone that says “Oh you’re with K31! We always watch your videos when we have doubts about building a road”. This never gets old and we are very humbled by the compliments.

Before K31 did this, you’d be lucky to find any information about these subjects online.
