The Bardon SMAtex range of asphalt surface course products is based on the application and experience of European-based stone mastic asphalt technology.

• Bardon SMAtex Carriageway: this product has been intentionally designed outside of the regime for BBA/HAPAS to allow a wider range of application and performance enhancement, particularly where high levels of retained texture is not considered important, such as for lower-speed, heavy-use highways.

• Bardon SMAtex Industrial: this product is designed to provide a highly durable asphalt surfacing for industrial applications. The product has a lower texture depth than either of the highway products, to improve resistance to scuffing from items and vehicles like stacking cradles and container forklifts.

• Bardon Forpave: this product has been developed for use in areas where the risks of fuel spillage and leakage are high, and where there is a need to improve resistance to degradation caused by oil and fuel spillage.

Key benefits:
• Long-term durability and rut resistance
• Economic alternative to traditional materials
• Improved resistance to scuffing
• Noise and spray reduction

Applications
• Heavily trafficked urban roads
• Residential low-speed roads
• Roundabouts
• Industrial and commercial areas, particularly where heavy loading is an issue
• Combined surface and binder course layers
