Cold-In-Place asphalt recycling is a cost effective full depth road rehabilitation tool that can effectively stretch your road budget dollars.-

What is Cold-In-Place Recycling?

Cold-In-Place recycling is a full depth asphalt process. The existing asphalt is cold milled to a depth of up to 6" from a selected road, mixed with controlled quantities of asphalt emulsion, water, and virgin aggregate (if required) and deposited on the road in a windrow. It is then picked up, paved, and compacted by a paving train that follows closely behind the recycling equipment, completing the road rehabilitation in a continuous on-site process.

The recycled asphalt then receives a surface overlay of hot asphalt (HMA), typically ten to fourteen days later.
