Foamed Bitumen Pavement Recycling and Dustless Cement Stabilisation
Fulton Hogan own two Wirtgen WR 2500SK Recyclers and operate these on projects throughout New Zealand.

Foamed Bitumen
Suitable projects of foamed pavement recycling include:

  • Regions experiencing freeze/thaw conditions
  • High load bearing road base courses
  • Areas prone to higher deflections
  • Airport runways and taxiways

The benefits include:

  • Operational. The road can be trafficked immediately
  • Environmental. Promotes sustainable management of natural resources
  • Traffic Safety. The operation can be accommodated within the width of one traffic lane
  • Water resistant base. Bitumen, by nature is water resistant.
  • Strong and flexible pavement. Provides and remains more flexible than cementitous bound pavements.

Dustless Cement Stabilisation
The benefits include:

  • Environmental. Significant reduction in terms and water and air pollution.
  • Agricultural sensitive areas. Dustless technology greatly reduces risk in immediate environment.
  • Operational. The dustless stabilisation technique allows continued operations during periods and strong wind and/or occasional rain.
  • Health and safety. Improved for both the general public and staff.
  • Quality of the stabilised base course. The stabilising agents and water are accurately controlled by a microprocessor.
