For more than 12 years, we have been developing a unique microwave technology that is changing the way asphalt surfaces are maintained

Streamline road maintenance with our unique microwave technology

We are a team of more than 20 Czech experts who, together with researchers from the Czech Technical University and the Academy of Sciences, are working on a unique device for heating asphalt surfaces and packaged mixtures for road pothole repairs.

Our development team consists of experts in microwaves, electrothermal technology, electrical engineering, electronics, imaging, software, mechanics, asphalt materials. The microwave repair procedures and the repair equipment that we develop and use are protected by patents and utility models.

We are transforming the way asphalt surfaces are maintained

At FUTTEC, we have been developing unique microwave technology since 2011. We are thus continuing the work of the almost forgotten Czech professor Augustin Žáček, who invented the cavity magnetron at the beginning of the 20th century.

Our work has resulted in a number of microwave technical solutions that are now recommended by the Czech Ministry of Transport under TP-264/2023. We are one of the first to be granted a European patent by the European Patent Office, valid uniformly in 17 EU countries, and we also pursue patent proceedings in non-European countries.

We are convinced that road repairs can be done quickly, efficiently, cheaply and sustainably. In fact, timely and preventive microwave repairs prevent inconvenient traffic closures and save maintenance costs.
