Tough winter conditions in Northern Europe and North America have resulted in major problems, increasing demand for Instamac's latest products
UK firm 240 Instarmac is aiming to expand its customer base for its innovative pothole patching systems. The firm now offers a broad range of repair products to suit asphalt and concrete road surfaces.

These can be used to repair general pavement problems such as potholes or for repairing the areas around manhole covers and drains.

The proven Instant Road Repair product is now said to offer better workability. This cold lay asphalt concrete product is approved in the UK for first time permanent repairs in class three and four carriageways and roads, cycle tracks and footpaths.

All the user has to do is empty the material from its container and tamp into place. The firm has also upgraded its Permanent Pothole Repair kit and this can also be used straight from the container and compacted into place to fill gaps.
