Asphalt Overlay Geotextiles
Installed between layers of old and new asphalt pavement, Petromat® Asphalt Overlay Geotextiles can add years to the life of the new pavement surface. Petromat® is made of polypropylene staple fibers needle punched together and calendared on one side to create a fabric with an affinity for petroleum products. Petromat® is deployed over a tack coat of asphalt cement just prior to paving. Heat from the new asphalt pavement draws the tack coat deep into the Petromat® geotextile creating a membrane like composite. Moisture is restricted from entering the pavement base materials, adding years of life to a typical asphalt pavement.
Petromat asphalt overlay geotextiles increase the pavement life of new asphalt overlays by preventing moisture from seeping into the subgrade. |

Convenient roll sizes make installation easy for one laborer. Waste is minimized by matching roll size to defected area. |
