Superpave Limited, in keeping with its policy of customer satisfaction, and in recognizing the special needs of small contractors, has developed and manufactured a range of hot and cold asphaltic mixes to satisfy these needs.
Hot asphaltic mix can be sub-divided into two (2) categories which include:-
Base course mix - used to seal off and strengthen the sub-base before the final mix is applied.
Wearing course mix - applied on the surface as the final layer
Our hot asphaltic mixes are normally utilized on:-
- Major road and highways
- Secondary roadway
- Driveways and yards
- Playing areas such as tennis and basketball courts
Different asphaltic mixes are designed based on the specifications required
Cold asphaltic mixes, although used on a smaller scale than hot asphaltic mix, can be used in sealing off and patching damaged areas on the surface layer and paving of roadways, driveways, tennis courts and other surfaces. It can be used for the same purposes as hot asphaltic mixes
Hot and cold mixes have different attributes that makes each mix unique with regards to workability and life-span. Hot asphaltic mixes are used for major infrastructures but cannot be stored and will no longer be workable once the temperature is not maintained. On the other hand, cold asphaltic mixes can be stored, has a longer shelf-life and is still workable after it becomes cold.
