Masterlayer thin surfacing asphalt
Masterlayer utilises stronger and flexible asphalt materials to provide enhanced resistance to reflective cracking and pavement deformation.
Masterlayer applications
- Thin asphalt surfacing - overlaid on top of existing asphalt/concrete surface
- Ideal for pavement cracking
- Deformation from poorly designed heavily trafficked areas
- Infrastructure maintenance - timely and budgetary constraints
- Ideal solution for local authorities, highways agencies and private contractors
Masterlayer types to meet your varying course needs
- Surface course - used when the road requires a new surface only.
- Single course - to be used when there is increased deformation.
- Dual layer (base/binder) - used for more distressed pavements requiring deeper treatment.
- Heavy duty - used for severely damaged pavements requiring full reconstruction.
Masterlayer benefits
- Enhanced resistance to reflective cracking and permanent deformation.
- Cost-effective - less construction time and materials stretches your budget.
- Can avoid the need for full depth reconstruction.
- Faster construction time and less disruption to the road user.
- A more sustainable option through thinner pavement design.
- Utilises stronger and more flexible materials which enhance structural benefit.
- Low voids reducing potential for water damage and improved durability.
- An alternative to the use of geo-textiles.
