Tuffdrive®
Tuffdrive® is an asphalt surfacing material specially designed to withstand the rigours of power-steering and heavy use on residential driveways and parking areas.
It is also ideally suited to new-build housing projects where a contractor wants to offer a high performance,durable, value for money driveway surface course.
Tuffdrive® uses the same distinctive ingredients as our flagship brand Tuffgrip®, including a specially-formulated polymer modified bitumen, and can be laid by any approved contractor.
For superior fuel resisting properties and compactability, we offer an alternative solution – Tuffdrive®+.
