What is Enhanced Aggregate (EA)? Aggregate becomes a new product when aggregate additives are added. Existing aggregate is treated with 32% Liquidow™ calcium chloride, resulting in a stronger base layer. Road base treatments retain fines, result in fewer voids, provide frost heave protection, and lower freezing points. Aggregate that is treated upfront gives your customers a choice
