You may be forgiven for not having heard of Humboldt, Saskatchewan but you have now. Pinned on the prairie like a cotillion corsage this full-service town of about 6,000, confronts the same infrastructure challenges as any other municipality. From freezing cold and flat land floods to freight cars and Freightliners, roads here take brutal punishment. Freeze/thaw, moisture and traffic loading eventually lead to one universal constant: potholes. They do not have to be big to be a problem, they do need to be dealt with directly and swiftly. Knowing a timely, affordable and durable repair was the only answer, Humboldt’s cry was heard by DuraPatcher.
The DuraPatcher employs a patented venturi system to move aggregate, including chunks the size of 65 mm. By selecting a suitably-sized aggregate and emulsion combination, edging, crazing, surface treating and potholes can be rehabilitated and eliminated. Without the complexity of conveyors and pumps to move product the machine is virtually trouble-free and always ready for use. Operators can be proficient in running the DuraPatcher in as little as 30 minutes. Supported by Cimlines factory-trained specialists and a network of experienced dealers across the country the 125-DJT sets the standard for pavement repair technology available today. This is typical of the entire range of products available from the Cimline Pavement Maintenance Group, your largest supplier of specialist pavement repair equipment. |

Saskatch-Patch
Durapatching is not a new concept, far from it, this repair process has been rescuing roads for more than a quarter century. It is such a popular repair practice that Pounder Emulsions of Saskatoon have even developed a proprietary liquid bitumen product to deal with the harsh prairie climate. FRS, Cimlines western dealer, worked with the town to demonstrate the process just in time for the long winter’s first snow storm. The patches lasted so well and the machine was so easy to run and maintain, that the Humboldt Public Works Department recently took delivery of their first DuraPatcher 125-DJT trailer model.
