Basecourse Stabilisation
Hiway Stabilizers was an early pioneer in the use of cement and lime stabilisation of basecourse layers, consistently creating pavements with greater strength, performance, and a longer design life.
By adding small amounts of stabilising agent to an existing or new granular pavement material we can improve the performance of pavements by modifying in-situ or imported materials, utilising our proprietary binders, specialist blends, polymers or foamed bitumen.
Innovation
Hiway Group has been carrying out basecourse stabilisation since 1986, developing specialist binders and polymers to enable cost-effective stabilisation for varying aggregate properties, traffic loadings or intended pavement use. Technology advances now enable us to design project specific blended stabilising agents in double or triple blends common with cement and/or lime.
