YOUR ROAD.
MORE POSSIBILITIES.

Soil stabilization and a black finish, brought together. Permabase Black is a polymer-acrylic emulsion with carbon-black tint. As the water evaporates, the polymer binds the treated material.

01

Give loose material a bond.

Polymer-acrylic binder holds prepared soil and aggregate together, turning loose material into a more cohesive road surface.

02

Keep more of the road on the road.

Binding dust-generating particles helps reduce the dust that follows traffic on untreated dirt and caliche.

03

Finish with a different look.

Carbon-black tint gives the treated surface a dark, asphalt-like appearance, with a water-resistant polymer bond.

BUILT AROUND
YOUR KIND OF ROAD.

A better arrival. All the way in.

Give suitable dirt and caliche access roads a more cohesive, dark surface. Start with the material you have and the way you use the road.

  • Ranch entrances and long driveways
  • Farm and private access routes
  • Low-speed traffic on suitable soils
Tell us the road length, width, and existing surface.
A good fit starts here.

Soil, drainage, traffic, and turning loads determine the right surface. For high-speed roads or demanding commercial traffic, plan for an engineered pavement section and an appropriate wearing course.

A PRACTICAL PROCESS.
A PROJECT-SPECIFIC PLAN.

We help define the treatment around your material, equipment, and site. Rates and cure time follow that plan.

01

Prepare

Review the soil and traffic. Grade the surface and address drainage before treatment.

02

Apply

Dilute concentrate with water and apply to the prepared material at the specified project rate.

03

Compact

Work and compact the treated material to the agreed application plan and density requirements.

04

Cure

Allow the water to evaporate and the polymer to bind. Confirm readiness before opening to traffic.

Is Permabase Black asphalt or a soil treatment?

Permabase Black is a polymer-acrylic soil stabilizer with a carbon-black tint. It can serve as a dark wearing surface on suitable low-speed projects. High-speed roads and demanding commercial traffic require a project-specific pavement design.

What surfaces is it suited to?

Suitable caliche and dirt roads, ranch and farm access, private drives, and low-speed yards are potential applications. Crownwood reviews the existing material, drainage, vehicle loads, and turning movements to help establish product fit.

How much product will I need?

Permabase Black is supplied in 275-gallon concentrate totes. Quantity depends on the surface area, material condition, treatment method, and specified application rate. Send your project dimensions and location for a recommendation and quote.

Will the surface need maintenance?

Plan for inspection and maintenance appropriate to the traffic, weather, and drainage. Wear and sun exposure can affect the surface and its color over time. Crownwood can help assess whether a touch-up or other maintenance is appropriate.

How is Permabase Black applied?

Prepare and grade the surface, dilute the concentrate according to the project application plan, apply it with suitable spray equipment, and compact the treated material. Allow the surface to cure before opening to traffic. Preparation, dilution, and curing requirements depend on the project conditions.

How do I get technical and safety documents?

Request the current SDS and product information from Crownwood. Include your intended use and project location so the team can provide the relevant application guidance along with pricing and availability.
