ASI's GSB-88 (gilsonite sealer/binder) fogsealing emulsion is back - and better than ever.
For almost 30 years, gilsonite-based GSB-88 has provided asphalt preservation for pavements around the world. From city streets to county roads, private parking lots to Department of Defense runways, and local airports to state highways, GSB-88 preserves and extends the life of asphalt. Binders are reintroduced to the pavement matrix while also sealing the surface.
A multi-year independent national assessment concluded that regular applications of GSB-88 can produce a Savings-to-Investment Ratio (SIR) of 5.0, and a Return-on-Investment (ROI) of 400 percent.
As a result of continuous product improvement, customers are now noticing shorter drying "curing" times. In normal weather conditions and when applied as a dilute fogseal, GSB-88 now starts "breaking" on pavement within 15-minutes, which ultimately reduces the overall traffic-ready drying time. This improvement is especially valuable for nighttime projects and in high-humidity locations. And most importantly, it does not negatively affect any other aspect of GSB-88® performance and user-friendliness.
GSB-88 is the only product in the asphalt industry to undergo rigorous independent third-party environmental testing. As a result, it has received an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) from the Institute of Environmental Research & Education, plus GreenCircle/LEED Certification.
