Why use SuperRed Asphalt?

SuperRed is a specialised asphalt solution designed to enhance safety and visibility in various applications through colour-coded demarcation. Available in either 6mm or 10mm aggregate, SuperRed offers flexibility to meet specific project requirements, whether it’s for cycle lanes, bus lanes, or pedestrian areas. The product incorporates a long-term colour-stable red aggregate, ensuring durability even under heavy traffic. Aggregate Industries provides rigorous design and technical support for each material, allowing customers to adjust the pigmentation to their preferred shade of red, though this customisation may affect the overall cost.

SuperRed is typically paver-laid but can be hand-laid for smaller areas, and it’s important to ensure minimal contamination during installation for a clean and aesthetically pleasing finish. The product is ideal for applications where colour differentiation is crucial, such as residential roads, footpaths, cycle lanes, and car parks. SuperRed’s adaptability makes it suitable for both large-scale public projects and smaller domestic uses like driveways. Customers are encouraged to explore the range of shades available and request samples to find the perfect match for their needs.
