Which compactor do I need for my jobsite?

Depends on the lift and the material: for trenches, fills and tight spaces, a vibratory plate or a rammer (jumping jack); for base and soil over large areas, a soil roller; for the asphalt wearing course, an asphalt roller. Request a quote with the material type and area and we'll recommend the equipment.

Does compaction affect the warranty of the work?

Yes. Poor compaction causes settlement, cracking and failures in pavements and foundations. That's why we offer equipment with the right compaction energy and the technical backing to certify the densities required by the spec and your supervision.

🇳🇮 Nicaragua · Code-compliant density, soil and asphalt

Compaction in Nicaragua

Compacting soil, base and asphalt to the density the spec demands — the difference between a jobsite that lasts and one that settles. Rollers, plates, rammers and compactors from BOMAG, Wacker Neuson and SIMAQ for every lift, with technical backing to certify densities.

Decision guide

Which one to choose for your job?

Find your case and see which type of equipment fits — and why. Your situation isn't an exact match? Request a quote and we'll size the precise machine.

If your case is…
Trenches, fills next to structures and tight spaces
Choose: Vibratory plate or rammer (jumping jack)
They concentrate impact energy on a small area, ideal for cohesive soils in trenches and corners where a roller can't fit; light and operated by one person, they prevent the settlement that later cracks the pavement.
If your case is…
Base, sub-base and soil embankments over wide areas
Choose: Vibratory soil roller (smooth or padfoot per the material)
It covers area fast and reaches code density in depth; the smooth drum is for granular soils and the padfoot for clays — choosing the right drum is what avoids redoing the lift.
If your case is…
Asphalt wearing course and road finishing
Choose: Asphalt roller (tandem and/or pneumatic)
It seals and compacts asphalt at temperature without marking it; the tandem gives density and the pneumatic closes the surface. A soil roller won't do here — the course demands asphalt-specific equipment if you want it to last.
