 Chip sealing involves spraying an asphaltic material followed by the distribution of a thin layer of aggregate cover. Properly designed chip seals are economical, easy to place, and reasonably durable. They provide a water proff cover for the existing pavement surface and also resist surface abrasion by traffic. Additional performance benefits have been seen when chip sealing is done using rubberized asphalt binder. Due to the decreased temperature susceptibilityt of rubberized binders, rubberized chip seals typically demonstrate longer lives and provide smoother rides.
ECOPATH has extensive experience in suggesting the right pavement types to certain climatic zones/countries, moreover ECOPATH is dedicated to developing solutions with economic efficiency as a priority. Please contact us for further information on mix and binder design services.
