What is Tarmac?
Tarmac, also known as asphalt or bitumen, is a classic choice for surfacing various outdoor areas, including driveways, roads, and parking lots. It has been a staple in the construction and surfacing industry for decades, and for good reason.
Tarmac is a composite material primarily composed of mineral aggregates, such as crushed stone, gravel, and sand, bound together by a petroleum-based binder known as bitumen. This mixture is heated to create a viscous liquid that is spread and compacted to form a smooth, solid surface when cooled and hardened. Tarmac is known for its flexibility and adaptability, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
