The UAE is growing quickly, and new roads, highways, airports, and other infrastructure are being built across the country. Every project needs a strong base before the final road surface is added.
This is why soil stabilisation is an important part of road construction. It helps improve weak soil, prepare the ground, and make better use of existing road materials. With the right equipment, contractors can carry out these jobs across large working areas.
Soil stabilisation is a process used to improve soil before construction. When the existing ground is weak or does not have the right properties for a road, it can be treated and mixed to create a better base.
A soil stabiliser machine works on the soil and mixes the material to improve its condition. Binding materials can also be used when needed. The main goal is to prepare a stronger and more suitable base for road construction.
Soil stabilisation can be used for road construction, site preparation, and foundation work. It can also be part of recycling work when old road materials are processed and prepared for reuse.

UAE roads carry cars, buses, trucks, and other vehicles every day. Some roads also handle heavy traffic for long hours. This puts pressure on the road structure and the ground below it.
A strong road starts with proper ground preparation. If the soil needs improvement, stabilisation can help prepare it before paving begins. This gives the next stages of construction a more suitable base.
Soil stabilisation is also useful on large projects where a wide area of ground needs to be treated. Machines with large working widths can help contractors cover more ground during road construction and site preparation.
Road repair and rebuilding can produce a large amount of old asphalt and other road materials. Moving these materials away from the project can require extra handling and transport.
Recycling gives contractors another way to manage these materials. Existing road material can be processed and reused as part of the road structure. This can help reduce the need for some new materials and lower the amount of material that needs to be transported away.
For large road projects, this approach can make better use of materials already available at the site. It also supports more practical road construction and maintenance work.
Before a damaged road can be repaired or resurfaced, the old asphalt or concrete may need to be removed. Cold planers are designed for this type of work.
The BOMAG cold planer range includes the BM 500/15, BM 1000/30, BM 1000/35, and BM 2000/60. These machines are used for milling old road surfaces and preparing them for the next stage of work.

The range includes different machine sizes for different road jobs and working areas. The BM 500/15 has a 500 mm working width, while the BM 2000/60 has a 2,000 mm working width.

These different sizes allow contractors to choose equipment based on the road job and required working width.
After old road material has been removed, or when weak soil needs improvement, recyclers and stabilisers can be used. These machines are designed for demanding road construction and recycling work.

The BOMAG range includes the RS 460, MPH 600, and RS 600. They are designed for soil stabilisation and recycling and can be used for road construction, site preparation, and foundation work.

The large working widths make these machines suitable for road projects where wide areas need to be treated or recycled.
The BOMAG MPH 600 is designed for soil stabilisation and recycling applications. It has a 27,900 kg operating weight, a 2,400 mm working width, and 440 kW performance.

The machine is made for demanding road construction work and can be used when soil needs to be improved or existing road materials need to be recycled.
For large UAE projects, its wide working area makes it suitable for jobs where a large amount of material needs to be processed. This can include road construction, site preparation, and foundation work.
The BOMAG RS 600 is another machine designed for soil stabilisation and recycling work. It has a 27,900 kg operating weight, a 2,600 mm working width, and 440 kW performance.

The machine is designed to work with different materials during stabilisation and recycling. Its wide working area makes it suitable for large road projects where material needs to be processed across a broad section of the site.
The RS 600 can support contractors working on road construction, site preparation, and other infrastructure projects where soil improvement or recycling is required.
Soil stabilisation may require binding material to be spread across the work area before mixing. Binder spreaders are designed for this part of the process.
The BOMAG range includes the Bomag BS 10, Bomag BS 16, and Bomag BS 12000. These machines help distribute binding material across the required working area before stabilisation work begins.

The BS 16 has a maximum working weight of 24,720 kg and can work across widths of 1, 1.5, 2, and 2.4 metres. It has a performance rating of more than 150 hp. The machine is designed to support controlled spreading during stabilisation work.
Road construction involves several connected steps. Old asphalt may first need to be removed. Weak soil may then need to be improved, or existing road material may need to be recycled. Binding material may also need to be spread before stabilisation.
Each job needs equipment made for that task. Cold planers handle milling. Recyclers and stabilisers work on soil and existing road materials. Binder spreaders handle the distribution of binding material.
BOMAG also offers other road construction equipment, including asphalt rollers, pavers and feeders, and soil compaction products. This gives contractors equipment options for different stages of road construction and maintenance.
The UAE’s expanding road and infrastructure network needs good planning from the ground up. Soil stabilisation is one part of this process, but it plays an important role when the existing soil needs improvement.
Recycling existing road materials can also help contractors make better use of materials already available at the project site. Cold milling can remove old road surfaces, while recyclers and stabilisers can process materials or improve weak soil. Binder spreaders can support the stabilisation process by distributing binding materials across the working area.
With the right equipment, these different jobs can be handled in a more organised way. The BOMAG range gives contractors machines for cold milling, recycling, soil stabilisation, and binder spreading.

Soil stabilisation is used to improve weak soil and prepare it for road construction, site preparation, and foundation work.
The range includes the RS 460, MPH 600, and RS 600. These machines are designed for recycling and soil stabilisation work.
A cold planer removes old asphalt or other road surface material. This prepares the area for repair, resurfacing, or new paving.
The range includes the BM 500/15, BM 1000/30, BM 1000/35, and BM 2000/60. Their working widths range from 500 mm to 2,000 mm.
A binder spreader distributes binding material across the work area before soil stabilisation. The BOMAG range includes the BS 10, BS 16, and BS 12000.
Recycling allows existing road materials to be processed and prepared for reuse. This can help reduce the need for some new materials and reduce the amount of material transported away from the site.
We provide equipment support along with genuine parts, maintenance, service, repairs, inspections, technical support, and operator training.
