ASPHALT OVERLAY PAVING FABRIC

Introduction:
Paving fabrics are widely used in both new road constructions and in road maintenance to reduce reflective cracking in the pavement. The purpose is to distribute stresses originated from cracks in the lower part of the pavement by creating a stress relieving and/or waterproofing interlayer membrane system. Paving fabrics made from polypropylene fibres is a flexiblepre-compressed needle punched nonwoven fabric added thermal bonding on one side only.

• To avoid reflective cracking of new asphalt.
• To protect the subsoil from water intrusion and thereby loss of bearing capacity
