“Every 60 mins RAC patrols attend a pothole-related breakdown” RAC, January 2020
Let’s start with the obvious… potholes are a huge issue. Caused by a mixture of poor road surfaces, inclement weather and the ever-increasing traffic volume, thousands of new and badly fixed pothole repair projects can appear year after year as bad weather, use and age create more of them.
These poor road surfaces cause an unprecedented amount of damage and are a huge danger threat to drivers and cyclists.
Historically, local authorities and highway maintenance companies have always used asphalt-based pothole repair solutions, resulting in a short-term fix and poor road surfaces which are gradually getting worse.
Who are Degafloor?
Degafloor are experts in methyl methacrylate (MMA) resin flooring. Unlike other resin products, high-performance MMA chemically bonds to the previous layer (or existing subfloor), creating a monolithic, virtually unbreakable bond. Yiu can learn more about Degafloor on the ‘About Us‘ page.
Pothole repair – the solution
Using this MMA technology, Degafloor designed and developed Degafill™, an ultra-fast curing, permanent pothole repair solution.
Similarly to MMA resin flooring, Degafill bonds chemically to the existing asphalt or tarmac in just 20 minutes – delivering unrivalled strength and durability.
Weather-proof
The Degafill permanent pothole repair solution withstands the inevitable thermal movement of road surfaces throughout the year without compromising the strength and integrity of the bond to the surrounding area. It can cope with both hot and cold emperatures (unlike most other pothole repair solutions available on the market).
Where can Degafill be used?
Degafill is the perfect solution for repairing potholes in driveways, car parks and on major roads and highways. It can be installed rapidly by just one man in all weather conditions, using minimal equipment. No hot works or expensive equipment is required.
Permanent pothole repair – the process
Whatever the weather, whatever the size of the pothole – it will be fixed in 3 simple steps and fully trafficable within 20 minutes:
- Mix the Degafill pothole repair kit components together in the bucket provided
