Asphalt Aggregate for Asphalt Applications

Asphalt aggregate is a high-quality construction material specifically engineered for use in asphalt mixes. Produced by crushing and screening durable stone, this aggregate is designed to provide optimal strength and stability when combined with bitumen to create asphalt pavement. The aggregate's composition ensures a consistent texture and gradation, which are critical for achieving a smooth, long-lasting surface.

The unique attribute of being formulated for asphalt applications means this aggregate offers excellent interlock and load-bearing capacity, reducing the risk of rutting and surface deformation. It is commonly used in residential driveways, commercial parking lots, roadways, and pathways. The material's angular shape promotes strong bonding with asphalt binder, resulting in improved durability and resistance to weathering. While it may not be suitable for decorative or drainage-specific projects, asphalt aggregate is the preferred choice for any paving job requiring a robust, stable base and a smooth, traffic-ready finish.
