Many of the United States’ roadways are paved and sealed through what is known as the chip seal method (chip and seal). This pavement surface treatment combines one or more layers of asphalt with several layers of fine aggregate. While many contractors consider this paving method to offer unique benefits over other paving standards, chip seal requires specialized equipment and machinery. Thankfully, with Etnyre’s ChipSpreaders, the chip and seal process has never been easier! Etnyre designs ChipSpreaders to accurately and efficiently apply a controlled amount of aggregate to the road in the chip seal process. Etnyre ChipSpreaders achieve these results using a hydrostatic drive system, and a variable width spread hopper to apply multiple aggregate sizes and application rates through a full range of travel speeds and spreading widths.
