The condition of the asphalt pavement is critical for the safety and operational performance of airports. A deteriorated pavement loses binder and aggregates, which can lead to FOD (Foreign Object Debris) issues and reduced friction levels.

Colas Sealing offers a solution that stops the aggregate loss and protects the asphalt without reducing friction, ensuring that airport operations can continue safely and efficiently.

Colas Active Sealing can be applied on aprons, taxiways, runways, and de-icing stands. One of the advantages of our specialized sealing treatment is that it can be used on all asphalt types, including porous asphalt, asphaltic concrete and grooved asphalt.

Colas Active Sealing penetrates deeply into the pavement and restores the flexibility of the binder without altering the pavement elevation, eliminating the need to adjust ILS systems, lighting and other installations afterwards.

With a clear understanding of the strict requirements for operational reliability, time constraints, and safety in airport environments, our execution methods are designed to minimize operational disruptions. Lights and pavement markings are covered prior to the sealing process, ensuring that the treated area is fully operational after only a few hours of closure.

We work in civilian and military airports across Denmark, the Nordic region, and the rest of Europe, sealing approximately 2 million of square meters each year.
