Ralumac takes you back from the edge with the solution to edge distortion / depressions and can restore / reprofile up to 75mm deep ruts. The increasing assault on our highways by the growing volume and weight of modern day traffic has led to problems that are common to all classes of road – wheeltrack rutting, fretting at the edges and surface deformation.
Ralumac's designed formula with polymer modified binder, high quality aggregates and expert laying squad has proven over the past four years and 1 million square metres of edge strengthening laid to be a proven, practical and economic solution to a difficult problem.
The finished surface can be surface dressed within four weeks or left to next season. TO GET THE EDGE ON YOUR ROAD USE RALUMAC!

Application process: Ralumac is cold-applied through a specially designed continuous flow machine. Daily outputs in excess of 5,000m² can be achieved with minimal disruption to traffic. Application is normally undertaken is layers with the initial regulating layer up to 60mm, followed by a uniform wearing course carpet of 8mm in thickness. The new Ralumac surface can be trafficked in 15 to 20 minutes. No rolling is required as the traffic action kneads the material, closing up the surface rendering it virtually impervious.
