Secure Chip
Secure Chip is a spray applied emulsion binder for application to recently completed surface dressings.
Secure Chip is designed to reduce the amount of post sweeping required by securing the dressing aggregate in the mosaic structure minimising the risk of damaged windscreens from chippings dislodged by passing vehicles. Application of Colas Ltd Secure Chip also gives a pleasing aesthetic and long lasting black colour resembling an asphalt surface.
The low application rate of Secure Chip results in the rapid breaking of the emulsion meaning that sites can be opened to traffic quickly minimising any disruption to local residents.
On recently surface dressed roads
Secure Chip should be applied to recently applied surface dressings that have been swept.
Secure Chip should be machine spray applied to recent surface dressing, after an initial sweeping of the site, at a temperature 85°C.
Secure Chip should be applied at spread rate of 0.2 - 0.4L/m2.
Secure chip is supplied in bulk loads.
Secure Chip should be stored at 80 – 85°C in purpose build bulk storage tanks or spray tankers.
