Resin Manufacture

[flatsix3.6]

Is anyone involved in or linked to the manufacture of 2 part polyurethane resins which are suited to the resin bonded and resin bound aggregate systems for driveways and footpaths etc.

I'm not involved in the supply of resins but have some experience of decorative surfacings. Hopefully without being patronising, I'd say caution is required here. Getting the right resin is tricky, as is a suitable aggregate, these things have a nasty habit of falling apart after about a year and being very expensive to fix.

If you do manage to get in touch with a supplier, get them to show you jobs that are 2 - 3 years old to give a bit of confidence the product works.

IDK what your involvement with this process is but I have seen 3 large "professional" installations which have lasted less than a year - now replaced by conventional materials

I'm an agent for AGT, bonded resin driveways. Only they glow in the dark.

Some people find this kinda funky. I use it as a safety feature in rapid exits on ships.
