Shisalanga's new High-Pressure Solutions enable the process of restoring texture and friction to a pavement surface via high-pressure water blasting. Skid resistance is thereby increased by the removal of excess bitumen and rubber from the road surface meaning fewer accidents on the nation's roads and runways. The machines combine variable water pressure with a high-velocity vacuum system to leave surfaces safe and stable.

The use of high pressure hydro-texturising to remediate flushed bituminous pavements has been pioneered in both Australia and New Zealand, and has also been used across Europe and the United States with no reduction in the structural life of the road surface. Every year approximately 2.2 million m2 of hydro-texturing is conducted by the various road authorities in Australia and New Zealand combined. These road authorities have moved away from traditional forms of remediation i.e. as Hydro-texturising has been shown to be a more effective and longer lasting treatment.

• Environmentally friendly: The process uses only water - No chemicals are used at any stage.
• High removal ratio: Approximately 95% of Waste Material is immediately removed from the road surface. The machines can vacuum, wash or hydro-texturise a variety of surfaces including bitumen seals, all asphalts, and concrete.
• Flexibility: The ability to target only specific segments of the road for re-texturising leads to a highly adaptable and flexible operation. Water pressure can be adjusted within a range of 1200psi to 12000psi and can be operated in most weather conditions, day or night.
• High production rate: 3000 to 6000m2 can be covered per shift with minimum traffic disruption. Each cycle takes between 60 and 90 minutes. Forward travelling spreads range from 100-1400 metres per hour.
