Paving the way to perfection

As the saying goes, the proof is in the pudding: or in the case of the Cat AP400, the proof is in the paver.

Melbourne-based Asphaltech specialises in the development and laying of asphalt products as well as road maintenance, civil construction and engineering.

With more than 25 years of industry experience, the business has become known for producing high quality asphalt and some of the most innovative products in the Australian market.

Using only the best, technologically advanced machinery, its team of highly skilled, passionate staff possesses a customer-first attitude and an ability to think outside the box to produce unique products that minimise environmental impact.

With a pedigree like that, Asphaltech was a perfect choice for Cat dealer William Adams to help demonstrate the features of the Cat AP400 asphalt paver, which continues to make waves in the asphalt-laying industry after its release in 2023.

Introduced as part of a new line of compact pavers from Cat, this model was designed to be versatile and efficient in both urban and rural paving applications, such as urban streets, parking lots and regional roads.

The smaller size wheel-type machine fills a niche need in small to intermediate-type projects, and has already been picked up by contractors who have found it perfect for transporting to jobs, while having enough power for a range of tasks.

To highlight the usefulness of the AP400, William Adams organised a demonstration day at an Asphaltech site to show off the features of the paver, and to let operators have a feel of the machine and assess its features.
