What Is Reclaiming?

Reclaiming, also referred to as Pulverizing or Full Depth Reclamation (FDR), is the most economical way to recycle full depth sections of asphalt in-place. It uses a powerful reclaiming machine operated by a skilled tradesperson to turn an old asphalt pavement into road base by uniformly pulverizing the full depth of old pavement and blending it with a portion of underlying material. This blend of pulverized asphalt and base is then compacted and graded per plans and specs.
