The CRP, or Composite Reinforcement Panel, is a specialised geocomposite designed for optimal performance in asphalt applications. It is constructed with a fiberglass geogrid at its core, providing excellent tensile strength and reinforcement capabilities. This geogrid is further enhanced with a bituminous coating, which not only adds durability to the material but also ensures a strong bond with the asphalt layer.
To enhance its functionality and compatibility with asphalt surfaces, the CRP features a non-woven geotextile layer. This geotextile component serves multiple purposes, acting as a filter to prevent the intrusion of fine particles into the asphalt layer, while also providing additional reinforcement and separation between the geogrid and the asphalt.
