Much Asphalt concludes SprayPave acquisition
Much Asphalt has completed the acquisition of SprayPave, following Competition Commission approval for the transaction, says Much Asphalt MD Bennie Greyling.
Much Asphalt is South Africa’s largest manufacturer of asphalt products.
The company’s acquisition of SprayPave from construction group Basil Read widens its scope to include 35 years of experience in the manufacture, supply and application of bituminous road binders, emulsions, primes, pre-coats and modified binders, says Greyling.
Much Asphalt has a national footprint of 17 static and five mobile manufacturing plants, while Spraypave has bitumen production facilities in Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal and the Western Cape.
The SprayPave arsenal also consists of 12 bitumen distributors and five haulers, as well as numerous static tanks.
A mobile emulsion plant, with a production capacity of 6 000 litres an hour, is able to produce anionic and cationic emulsions, as well as emulsion primes.
Bitumen Reactor
“We are also delighted to announce that SprayPave’s new multistage bitumen reactor has now been commissioned and delivery to South Africa is expected shortly,” says Greyling.
“The reactor will enable SprayPave not only to manufacture industry-first multigrade bitumens, but also to modify bituminous products from one grade to another as required. The unit will be located at the Cape Town branch.”
According to Much Asphalt, this unit, which will be “unique in South Africa”, will place SprayPave at the “cutting edge of bitumen technology”.
