Colas Active Sealing
Sealing
Colas Active Sealing is an innovative method for road maintenance that extends the service life of asphalt, reduces annual maintenance costs and CO2 emissions.
By applying Colas Active Sealing, the existing asphalt’s flexibility and strength are restored, preventing premature deterioration and maintaining road performance.
Asphalt maintenance with Colas Active Sealing preserves your pavement investment by reducing the need for expensive repairs or replacement of the wearing course. A reduced need for major repairs means lower CO2 emissions due to the decreased use of resources, thereby rendering Colas Active Sealing a beneficial solution for both environmental sustainability and economic efficiency.
Colas Active Sealing is a versatile solution as it is applicable on all asphalt types and pavements.
Benefits of Colas Active Sealing:
- Extends the life cycle of asphalt by up to 35%
- Maintenance and lifetime extension of asphalt emits less CO2 compared to the replacement of the wearing course
- A cold applied sealing which further reduces the energy consumption
- A fast and efficient alternative with few inconveniences for traffic
- Economically advantageous compared to extensive repairs and a new wearing course
- The treatment can be repeated and further extend the service life of asphalt
- The sealing mix is adjusted during the application according to the condition of the asphalt.
Recommended timing for sealing
Signs of aging on an asphalt pavement typically appear within 8-15 years depending on traffic intensity, climate and asphalt type. We recommend Colas Active Sealing when signs of mortar and stone loss show.
It is beneficial to apply Colas Active Sealing before the asphalt pavement shows severe signs of deterioration.
