Product range
Which emulsion grades are available in Trinidad and Tobago?
The grades available are conventional CRS and CSS types, polymer-modified versions, and Pro-Road’s own sealant lines. Each product is described in full on our bitumen emulsions page. Setting speed decides the use. Rapid grades break on contact and suit spray work. Slow grades stay workable for mixing.
| Grade | Line | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| CRS-1 | Conventional cationic, rapid setting | Chip seal and tack coat |
| CRS-2 | Conventional cationic, rapid setting | Chip seal where higher viscosity is needed |
| CSS-1 | Conventional cationic, slow setting | Slurry seal, fog seal, and priming |
| CSS-1h | Conventional cationic, slow setting | Tack coat and slurry with hard base asphalt |
| CQS-1h | Conventional cationic, quick setting | Slurry seal where traffic must return quickly |
| CRS-1m, CRS-2m, CSS-1hm | Polymer-modified cationic | Heavy traffic and demanding wearing courses |
| PRIM-18 | Modified liquid sealant | Chip seal (TSD) wearing surfaces |
| PRIS-74 | Conventional liquid sealant | Chip seal (TSD) wearing surfaces |
| PRP-98 | Primer | Adhesion coat before the first chip seal layer |
| PRSS-94 | Slow-setting slurry emulsion | Slurry seal, supplied with mix design support |

Your quote confirms the sailing schedule and door-to-site timing for your order.
Emulsions ship in drums or IBC totes. Asphalt cement ships in drums or big bags.
The minimum order for emulsions is 16 MT, one full 20-foot container. Asphalt cement starts at 24 MT, one full 40-foot container.
Emulsions keep for one year in their original packaging. Store them in a cool dry place, in the shade, below 45 °C.
Applications
Which emulsion grades fit road programmes in Trinidad and Tobago?
The best fits are CRS grades for chip seal and tack coats, and CSS grades for slurry work. Polymer-modified grades cover heavy-traffic corridors.
The Ministry of Works and Transport maintains the national road network. Its PURE unit, the Programme for Upgrading Roads Efficiency, handles resurfacing and rehabilitation across both islands. Emulsion surface treatments and tack coats fit that maintenance cycle.
Mill-and-pave overlays need a tack coat between layers. CRS-1 or CSS-1h covers that step. Surface treatments and slurry seals extend road life between repaves. PRIM-18 and PRSS-94 are made for that work. Our chip seal guide explains the full double surface treatment method.
Emulsions also suit maintenance work in wet tropical weather. They apply cold and need no hot-mix plant on site.
