COLD IN-PLACE RECYCLING with TOP-SEAL BLACK TM

Recycling with Top-Seal Black (TSB) is a very efficient and cost-effective method of transforming an old worn out and unsalvageable asphalt (bitumen) surface into a very smooth and hardened traffic bearing roadway for essentially any type of traffic. This method of rehabilitating an old pavement surface with TSB will produce a newly stabilized base far superior to the pre-existing base. In combination with TSB, all of the old pulverized asphalt and old road base material will be tightly cemented into a hardened and solid black mass that is virtually indistinguishable from a newly paved surface. This will then produce an option for adding a new pavement to the base, or to simply defer that decision into a future budget.

Advantages of recycling with TSB are as follows:

  • Environmentally safe
  • Superior performance in comparison with traditional asphalt (bitumen) based emulsions
  • Less expensive and more stable in pricing compared to constant fluctuations of petroleum based additives
  • Elimination of removing and disposing of old asphalt (bitumen) surfaces in accordance with strict environmental laws
  • Reconstruction of a newly stabilized base with TSB will be far superior to the pre-existing base
