Chemical Process
With the extreme force and friction your runways endure surface rubber deposits build up, leaving your runways without the friction necessary for build speed on take-off and stop on landing. CKS has perfected the remedy for these dangerous conditions with a highly effective chemical process combined with water blasting.
The chemical process comes first, pretreating the runway with Aerocleen Green, a cleaning solution designed specifically for rubber removal. It’s environmentally-safe, biodegradable, will not damage the pavement or any airline equipment, and meets all FAA regulations. Aerocleen Green works to dissolve the rubber build up, turning it into biodegradable dark water, and then our expert team follows with modern and efficient equipment: our hydro mower.
