TenCate Bidim® PGM 14 paving fabric is a mechanically bonded, continuous-filament, polypropylene nonwoven with optimum bitumen retention capacity. TenCate Bidim® PGM 14 is economically more effective than conventional road maintenance methods. Its use retards reflective cracking of repaired asphalt road surfaces by a combination of the functions stress relief and sealing.

The benefits of TenCate Bidim® PGM 14 at a glance:

• Sealing:
  Bitumen saturated TenCate Bidim® PGM 14 prevents rain and oxygen from penetration into the road structure.

• Stress relief:
  TenCate Bidim® PGM 14 retards the progress of differential stresses between substrate and new overlay. Crack propagation and reflective cracking is therefore reduced.

• Ease of installation:
  When a laying device is used, TenCate Bidim® PGM 14 can be installed easily and quickly without any fixing material, even in bends or over unevenness’s.

• Recycling:
  TenCate Bidim® PGM 14 asphalt interlayers can be milled easily with conventional methods, if the milling is done a few cm below PGM.
