Introduction
Asphalt is one of the most popular paving materials in the world, but not all asphalt is created and used equally. You have two main options in the asphalt world- Cold Mix Asphalt and Hot Mix Asphalt. Whilst Hot Mix Asphalt remains an economical and permanent choice between road contractors, road maintenance work cannot be done after a heavy downpour.
