Targeted surface design to meet requirements
Grinding and grooving technology is an innovative method for the targeted surface texturing of busy traffic areas. Currently it can be expected that this form of surface treatment will become the new standard for concrete roads. Depending on the chosen texture, the road surface’s future performance characteristics can be produced with precision.

METHOD
Grinding:
- Grinding for evenness – eliminates road unevenness
- Grinding for texture – produces a defined surface texture specific to requirements
Grooving:
- Grooves with greater depths and distances than grinding improve drainage properties
ADVANTAGES
Increase in road safety
Protection of the environment through reduction of tyre-road noise and rolling resistance
Texture design according to the latest scientific developments
Can be used on new and existing surfaces in concrete and asphalt
Elimination of accident hotspots in areas of changing gradients
Optimisation of evenness for better driving comfort and longer road surface service life (minimisation of dynamic wheel load)
Reduction of the risk of aquaplaning
Short closure times due to powerful machine technology
Transparency and quality control through accompanying measurements
