Safer Sustainable Solutions
23/08/2019 | by colasAt COLAS Australia, we’ve been thinking ahead. Our roads connect more than people and place, they connect our futures. They take our young ones to school and old friends on new adventures. They help our businesses reach new customers and our customers get to work. From work to play, they keep us connected to things that matter most to our lives. Our country has over 350,000 kilometers of paved roads and more than half a million kilometers of unpaved roads — that’s why we’re helping Australia go from A to Better with safer, more sustainable roading solutions

Asphalt Cold Mix Limited was immediately set up in order to use the emulsion on roads, and the exclusive licence for France was awarded to the Société Générale d’Entreprise in July 1924.
