    Emulsion road construction involves the use of bitumen emulsions as a binder in various applications like surface dressing, cold mixes, and recycling. The process starts with preparing the road base and applying a layer of bitumen emulsion using specialized sprayers. Aggregates are then spread over the emulsion layer and compacted. The emulsion breaks and sets, binding the aggregates together to form a solid pavement layer. This method is energy-efficient, as it doesn’t require heating the bitumen, and allows for quicker project completion and reduced environmental impact.
