How does PX300 save construction and maintenance costs?
There is no need to import base material, if PX-300 is used in road or pad or field construction. PX-300 is mixed with onsite soil to produce a solid base. Adding PX-300 to base material reduces costs in two ways due to its extremely low; permeability. First, the low permeability of the PX-300 base reduces the occurrence of potholes, thereby saving on maintenance costs. See PX 300 Permeability Lab Test results on the Lab Tests Page Second, if an additional asphalt wear surface on a road is desired, the asphalt surface can be much thinner than is required for traditionally constructed roadbeds. Reducing the amount of asphalt means big savings. In some situations, a chip-seal surface is all that is required, resulting in additional savings. In other situations, no additional surface is desired and is not needed. For example, Px-300 was used to construct a one-half mile road for the County of Riverside, CA, over three years ago, without any additional surfacing. The road has carried at le
