Ooms CRS-2 emulsion is a more viscous liquid with higher binder content (minimum 67%) and is most suited for application such as:
- Surfacing dressing
- Grounding
- Penetration Macadam

  • - Easy spray
  • - Low temperature curing
  • - Highly adhesive properties
  • - Water resistant and enhances easy drainage of water
  • - Enhances structural strength of layers
  • - Prevents lateral movements of structural layers
  • - Provides a water impervious layer to prevent water ingress from water table below the road layers.

lt consist of application in one or two coats, each consists of a layer of bituminous binder sprayed on a previously prepared base, followed by a cover of stone chips rolled into form a wearing course.
