"The reports I have received from my workmen have been very favourable. They find the material, (Canader) much easier to use than some of the "instant" materials I have previously used. The material seems to be more pliable but more easily compacted than those previously used. Furthermore, it does not seem to be temperature dependant."

Enfield Bypass Project, F and F Civil Engineering Ltd.,Ireland

We have recently completed the Enfield Bypass project.

We installed a traffic control system in the village which involved excavating underground ducting in the existing road. We used CANADER macadam to reinstate the trenches and both ourselves and the client, Meath County Council, were satisfied with the product.

The advantages of "CANADER macadam" in this were as follows:
1.0 The product could be brought to site and stored until it was required. 2.0 The product was extremely easy to place and no specialist contractor was required to place it. Therefore it was easy to coordinate on site and works could be completed as soon as ducting and backfill was completed. 3.0 We trafficked the macadam within two hours and it behaved very well under traffic. 4.0 It was extremely easy to place and finish in narrow widths between new kerbing and excavated road.

To summarize, we found the product very useful and would envisage using it on our future projects. We intend to have a load of "CANADER macadam" in our yard at all times.

"When there is a bad storm out, I normally apply more than what's called for and still have to go out and reapply salt to finish cleaning the road. With ECO-THAW, I saved material and labour by not having to make that second run. Therefore, I feel we used 25-30% less material and cut my time spent in half."

Dublin Ireland, Gerry McCloskey (irl) Ltd., Building and Civic Engineering Contractors

As discussed, we laid a short stretch that was approximately 2 meters wide on a very busy primary road in Dublin.

I am please to say that it has now been 2 months since we laid your product and despite very adverse weather conditions it has remained in perfect condition and has been unaffected by heavy traffic or climate changes.

I have no hesitation in recommending Canader for use for any similar applications.

Following the recent trial test in Dunboyne, Co. Meath, where we used an Innovative rubber riser combination with CANADER all weather asphalt patching material, I am please to say that the task has been a complete success. From the first stage of application to the final reinstallment the system is quick and efficient and fulfills all it's prescribed requirements. CANADER seems to be the ideal solution for small reinstallments in all weather condition. Also the fact that it is applied cold straight from the packaging is extremely advantageous. I have no hesitation in recommending this product and look forward to using it in future.

"Thank you for introducing us to CANADER asphalt repair material. Minor pothole repairs are carried out in all conditions at all times of year and we have found CANADER to be much more manageable and easy to work with under all conditions than the regular road repair materials.

In additon to the ease of use of CANADER wehave also found it to provide good lasting repairs. I can recommend this product to anybody with similar requirements to ourselves and look forward to using the product again in the future"

Nova Scotia Department of Transportation and Communications, Comments from Various Area Managers

"All of the Operations Supervisors in Colchester County indicated that it (Canader) worked extremely well in all kinds of weather and temperature"

"In the past we have stored cold mix inside to make it more workable. This past winter’s material was stored outside and remained workable in the cold and reacted better in wet and cold applications, thus staying in the patch much longer and didn’t appear to ravel after application" top."

"The cold mix used this winter and spring has performed extremely well. Staff have commented on good workability, even in cold weather, and since this cold mix stays in place, the same pothole does not have to be filled time after time"

"In conclusion, the performance of the mix was very good and we wouldn’t hesitate to use it in the future."

"It (ECO-THAW) has changed the way we de-ice roads. It's helping us save money on salt, and preventing our stockpiles from freezing, which is a big plus.

ECO-THAW has proven not only to be an effective de-icer but also to prevent hard-pack build-up. It penetrated the hard-pack so it could be scooped away. Where we sprayed this liquid on hard-pack we were able to scrape the road clean. Where we didn't, we weren't able to break the hard-pack.

ECO-THAW penetrated the snow. After a storm, we noticed meltdown to wet, even bare pavement. During a storm, it provided traction, which is a unique quality and extremely difficult. We had really good results."

"Salt mixed with ECO-THAW worked better and quicker than salt. The savings, was in not having to go out as often."

"We didn't get any hard-pack at all this year although conditions were there for it to happen. That was a surprise to us. Also, when a place got dry, you could see ECO-THAW on the road. It lasted 4-5 days longer and it didn't blow off the roads. It seemed to adhere right to the blacktop."
