Asphalt resurfacing is a common solution for repairing damaged or aging asphalt pavements. However, this process can be time-consuming, expensive, and not environmentally optimal. In contrast, PressurePave® is a pavement preservation product that offers several environmental benefits compared to traditional asphalt resurfacing methods.
1. Lower Emissions: PressurePave® relies on quick-set
chemistry which uses water evaporation during the curing process.
This process emits no volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Traditional
asphalt resurfacing methods can emit VOCs, like sulfur and carbon
monoxide, during the application process. This can have negative
impacts on air quality and the environment. By using
PressurePave®, you can help to reduce emissions and
contribute to a cleaner environment.
2. Reduced Waste: Asphalt resurfacing involves removing the existing
asphalt layer and disposing of it in a landfill. This generates a
significant amount of waste, which can have negative impacts on the
environment. In contrast, PressurePave can be applied directly over
the existing asphalt layer, reducing the amount of waste generated
and conserving resources.
3. Long-Term Benefits: PressurePave® is designed to extend the lifespan of asphalt pavements, reducing the need for further repairs and replacements, such as sealing cracks or filling potholes. By extending the life of the pavement, PressurePave can help to reduce the environmental impact of paving projects over time.
Overall, PressurePave® is a pavement preservation
system offering a number of benefits over traditional asphalt
resurfacing methods. Whether you are concerned about the
environment, cost, or the longevity of your pavements, PressurePave
is a smart and sustainable choice that can help you achieve your
goals for a healthier community.
