Chinese Firm Builds Asphalt Processing Factory Exclusively for PP-SHV Expressway Construction

The Chinese firm responsible for constructing Cambodia’s first expressway has recently built a new factory processing modified asphalt (known as SBS) to supply the entire pavement work of the expressway project that requires a total of over 53,000 tons of asphalt.
