More sustainable as a result of enhanced durability

Fully recyclable

Designed to increase durability and reduce maintenance costs for high traffic roads

ViaLayer is an advanced Stone Mastic Asphalt (SMA) surface course specifically designed for urban environments. It tackles two major challenges faced by urban roads: deformation and premature cracking caused by heavy traffic and frequent utility works.

The Challenge

Urban roads that experience heavy traffic flow often require maintenance work due to the pressure imposed on the roads. When maintenance work is carried out, it creates trenches which, when overlaid with conventional asphalt mixes, can lead to problems with reflective cracking. This significantly reduces the lifespan of the asphalt surface, causing the same problems to recur frequently, often within months of the work being completed.

ViaLayer provides an advanced solution that improves the durability of urban roads, by addressing the two main causes of road defects in urban environments: deformation and premature cracking.

It offers greater flexibility allowing it to absorb the stresses of urban traffic and withstand the impact of slow, heavy-moving vehicles like buses / bus lanes.

Using ViaLayer can reduce the frequency and cost of maintenance needed for pavements and resulting traffic delays for busy towns and streets.

ViaLayer uses a combination of a selected aggregate grading and a high volume of Polymer Modified Bitumen.

It also exhibits very low noise from the road/tyre interface as a result of the negative textured surface – which is beneficial in an urban environment.
