"Komobility Japan" Enters the Japanese Market with Proven Global Sustainable Road Maintenance Solutions

Komobility Japan Co., Ltd. (Minato-ku, Tokyo, CEO: Danny Nadri), an Australian-born sustainable road materials manufacturer, has begun offering its solutions "KomoRoad" and "KomoFix" for the Japanese market, which contribute to reducing road maintenance costs and extending the lifespan of transportation infrastructure. Along with this, the company has started accepting sample requests and demo construction applications. As much of Japan's road infrastructure reaches a turning point of deterioration 25 to 40 years after construction, the company proposes a shift from reactive repair (fixing after failure) to proactive preservation (protecting beforehand). The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism estimates that adopting a proactive preservation approach can reduce maintenance costs by up to 32% over 30 years.

Why Japan Now?

Most of Japan's road infrastructure was built during the period of high economic growth and is rapidly aging. According to estimates by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, approximately 39% of road bridges have already exceeded 50 years since construction, and this proportion is expected to reach 63% by 2033 (Source: MLIT "Initiatives for Social Capital Maintenance"). A decision is now required—whether to spend enormous costs on repaving and rebuilding, or to protect roads and extend their lifespan through proactive preservation. Komobility Japan has decided to enter the Japanese market at this turning point.

"Sunscreen for Roads" — KomoRoad

KomoRoad is a proactive preservation material that prevents road surface oxidation caused by ultraviolet rays by applying a thin film of just 1mm. It hardens in about 2 hours after application, minimizing road closure time. It has a proven track record of millions of square meters of application, from airport runways to residential areas, in the United States, Canada, Europe, Asia, and Latin America, with a lifespan extension effect of 7 to 10 years internationally verified. Unlike emulsion-based products (water-mixed type), it is a one-component waterproofing agent similar to asphalt, a durable product that maintains its effectiveness on the road surface for a long period.

Cold-Applicable Asphalt for Permanent Repair — KomoFix

KomoFix is a cold-applicable repair material using 98% recycled RAP (Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement). It allows traffic to resume within minutes after application, and unlike the common 20kg bag cold asphalt in Japan, it enables economical application in ton units. Moreover, it achieves permanent repair, not just a temporary fix.

Sustainability at the Core of Design

Both products are cold-applicable, reducing CO2 emissions by over 90% compared to hot asphalt methods. KomoRoad contains 70% recycled waste materials, and KomoFix is 98% recycled material, directly contributing to Japan's circular economy and decarbonization goals.

Track Record in Australia

Komobility has approximately 10 years of experience in Australia, and KomoFix is certified as a recommended product by Transport NSW. It is used at Sydney Airport, local governments, and mine roads. Multiple demo constructions on actual roads in Japan have also been conducted, confirming excellent durability and workability.

CEO Comment: Danny Nadri

"Komobility has great expectations for entering the Japanese market. We are confident that we are in the right place at the right time. Japan's road infrastructure is at a turning point, and it is our mission to lead the discussion on whether to spend enormous sums on repaving or choose the sustainable alternative of proactive preservation. We want Japanese road construction companies to try our products. We also look forward to deepening dialogue with prefectures and municipalities on new methods of road maintenance."
