Our microwave technology allows pothole repairs on roads even in frost: an example is the I/35 road near Hřebeč in the Pardubice region - FUTTEC a.s.

The new year brought with it harsh winter conditions that we have not experienced in the Czech Republic for a long time: a lot of snow, temperatures well below freezing and icy roads. Right now, road workers have to devote maximum effort to road maintenance to ensure safe and smooth traffic. In addition to clearing snow, removing ice or sprinkling roads with inert materials, another fundamental problem is often forgotten: cracks and potholes. These are made worse by frost, and packaging plants have a winter shutdown. However, there exists durable and fast solution even in winter: FUTTEC microwave technology. Our FT-3 “microwave patcher” ensures high-quality pothole repairs even in frosts around -10 °C. An example can be the repairs on the I/35 road near Hřebeč in the Svitavy region, which we have provided recently for the ŘSD for the Pardubice region.

“FUTTEC microwave technology can be used all year round – regardless of the season or climatic conditions (the only exception is heavy rain, when streams of water flow down the road). You could see our ‘microwave patcher’ during repairs even now in freezing January: for example, on a busy section of the I/35 road near the Hřebeč tunnel – during full traffic, without significant restrictions on drivers,” summarizes Jiří Rušikvas, founder of FUTTEC.
