benefits  of  soil  stabilization

Saves Money - Generally, there is no need for aggregates (and associated hauling).

Savings by Design - Stabilized roads/bases are much stronger than conventional granular sub base. Thus, you can reduce the asphalt thickness by 50%, and concrete thickness by 30%.  Concrete or blacktop can be laid directly onto stabilized soil. Example: Chip sealing (instead of traditional 2 inch thick HMA) is possible as wearing course.    

Saves Time - Stabilization is very fast.  Also, time associated with base preparation (hauling of aggregates) is eliminated. Projects are less susceptible to rain/water/mud related delays.

Saves Environmental Impact - Imagine removing 50 truck loads of soil and bringing in 50 truck loads of imported material/aggregates.  Less costs, less congestion, less carbon footprint, and less angry motorists.

Saves Maintenance Costs - Stabilized roads do not require as much maintenance as compared to unstabilized roads.  Potholes, rutting, mudding are virtually eliminated. Funds normally earmarked for road maintenance can be utilized elsewhere.

Saves Wastes - Recycling asphalt with this process makes use of old asphalt.  Asphalt is now the most recycled product in the USA.
