Dubai Sand Stabilizing
PROJECT – November 2018
The GCC countries (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates) depend heavily on the outside world for the supply of most of their aggregates due to lack of resources. Being able to stabilize insitu granular sand is a major breakthrough for these countries. Flexi-C-Ment was used in Dubai to stabilize a pull off lane (shoulder) in an industrial roadway and also a loading construction bay used for the sale of aggregate.

PHF
Give Way Intersection
PROJECT- 2018
This rest area is situated just off a very busy highway and experiences extreme amounts of through traffic on a daily basis. The Give Way area is prone to unravelling and potholing which causes road users to experience a negative experience when leaving this complex. Gravel Lock put down a trial of PHF Coldmix Pothole Fill, in the middle of winter, next to traditional fill for the owner to assess the viability and longevity of the product. The PHF is still strong and well bound after 2 years!
