PolyCom Stabilising Aid Discussed at MWOA Conference

Friday, September 30, 2011 by PolyCom Stabilising Aid

At the September MWOA conference held in Bendigo, Victoria, delegates from councils and shires around Australia were talking about PolyCom Stabilising Aid.

Asset managers, engineers, works supervisors and more exchanged information and experiences about the positive results they achieved when using PolyCom Stabilising Aid to manage their road assets. Recent weather events have caused extensive road damage and council and shire budgets are stretched to breaking point. By including PolyCom Stabilising Aid in standard road repair procedures, works crews are delivering more productivity and more cost effective road repairs.

PolyCom is a reliable and efficient way to construct, maintain and repair sealed and unsealed roads. It is used to repair road shoulders, maintaining and improving the seal and shoulder interface, and it is used for stabilising soft spots in sealed roads and for patching to create a longer lasting permanent repair. PolyCom is effective on hardstands and airstrips and is used extensively on mine haul and access roads.

Council crews talked about how easy PolyCom is to apply, it can be applied in dry form rather than using a water cart. Standard maintenance procedures apply, there is no need for special machinery and in most cases there is no need to import re-sheet material.
