Services
Reclamite Application
Reclamite restores critical maltene compounds in new or well-maintained asphalt, improving flexibility and durability. Independent testing confirms 56-63% viscosity reduction after three months, extending pavement life by 5-7 years. This proactive treatment prevents premature aging by replenishing chemicals stripped during modern asphalt production.
CRF Treatment
CRF rejuvenates aging asphalt (6-12 years old) while sealing surface damage. The deep-penetrating formula replaces lost maltenes and heals cracks, extending road life by 5-10 years. This dual-action treatment combines chemical restoration with protective sealing for mid-life pavement preservation.
JointBond Stabilization
JointBond strengthens construction joints in asphalt roadways, preventing separation and water infiltration. This specialized treatment improves joint durability by 40-60%, reducing maintenance needs for the most vulnerable pavement areas. Field tests show superior performance compared to conventional joint treatments.
Maltene Replacement
Our maltene replacement technology addresses modern asphalt's chemical imbalance caused by refined production processes. By restoring lost flexible compounds, this treatment prevents premature brittleness and cracking. Long-term studies demonstrate 29% lifecycle cost savings through proactive chemical rejuvenation.
Pavement Evaluation
We provide comprehensive pavement condition inspections to identify preservation opportunities. Our engineers analyze road inventories to recommend optimal treatment schedules, ensuring cost-effective maintenance strategies. This data-driven approach maximizes infrastructure investments through timely interventions.
Questions
How does maltene replacement technology work?
Our treatments restore lost flexible compounds in asphalt through deep-penetrating rejuvenators. This chemical restoration improves pavement flexibility, reduces cracking, and extends road life by 5-10 years per application.
What's the difference between Reclamite and CRF?
Reclamite treats new or well-maintained asphalt to prevent aging, while CRF combines rejuvenation with sealing for roads showing early deterioration. Both use maltene-based formulas but target different pavement conditions.
How long does treatment last?
Reclamite extends pavement life 5-7 years per application. CRF provides 5-10 years of protection. JointBond treatments maintain joint integrity for 6-8 years, depending on traffic volume and conditions.
Will treatments disrupt traffic?
Our efficient process treats 5 miles of road daily with roads reopening within 30 minutes. Minimal disruption comes from temporary sand application that's removed within 3-14 days post-treatment.
Are your products environmentally safe?
Yes, our petroleum-based rejuvenators are non-toxic and approved for use in environmentally sensitive areas. They work by restoring natural asphalt components rather than introducing synthetic chemicals.
