         Benefits
         Grouted Macadams are a composite process consisting of a machine laid coated stone (design mix) impregnated with liquid grout. Their positive attributes are a factor of the grout qualities and the specialist design mix. This determines the degree of strength or flexibility attained, end usage or the design life.


Miles Macadam use 2 types of grout, manufactured from their plants in Cheshire.

1. Resin Cementitious Grout
This grout incorporates high quality blended powders and various polymer resins as dictated by the desired end use objective. This achieves a high strength finish similar to concrete, combined with the flexible properties associated with an asphaltic or macadam material.
Its benefits are:

    • High Strength
    • Fuel Resistance
    • Specific Resistance Properties
    • Colours
Core sample of natural Hardicrete

2. Asphaltic Grout
This material was first produced in Germany in the 1930’s and is essentially a blend of bitumen and natural raw materials. It is unique in its manufacture in that, although appearing like an emulsion, the product is in fact a colloidal dispersion.

Its benefits are:

    • Flexibility
    • Low Oxidisation Breakdown
    • Impermeability
    • Colours
Miles Macadam Plant
Grouted Macadams will outperform most conventional materials if used correctly. Base design or existing base strength will ultimately affect the design life of any surface course whatever its properties, and care must be taken to avoid relying on superior surface course qualities as a means of cost saving.
