For over 25 years, Carlson Paving Products has been on the leading edge of screed technology, emerging as a leader in asphalt paving products in the highway and commercial classes. Carlson continues to command a dominating share of the screed market through an impressive offering of seven highway class screeds able to attach to trac- tors built by the six major paver manufacturers. Engineered, designed, built and supported by the industry's most qualified personnel, contractors have come to know Carlson screeds as the most dependable for laying the perfect mat every time. While being on the forefront of highway class screed technology, Carlson has also emerged as the pre- eminent leader in attachment innovations. From the highly touted Safety Edge to the revolutionary LED Blade Light, Carlson offers attachments that improve productivity, safety and durability of our nation's roads. Building upon the success of its first generation commercial class paver, Carlson introduced two models to replace the CP-90: the CP-75 and CP-100. With a wide array of features and options available, these pavers provide higher quality and longer life cycle options to contractors operating in the long overlooked commercial segment of the industry. Carlson Paving Products heads into 2015 with new products and new opportunities, poised to continue its long tradition of bringing innovative changes to the asphalt paving industry. Left › Right: 1.
