Gravel Roads, secondary roads, campgrounds- dust suppression. Everything from residential dust suppression to cities, municipalities or Regional Districts.
All gravel roads give off dust under traffic. Dust not only reduces driver visibility but also causes road surface deterioration. Studies have shown that an untreated gravel road carrying 200 vehicles per day will experience the loss of 150 metric tonnes of aggregate per kilometer per year.
Users of dust control systems, specifically calcium chloride-based products, have reported a reduction of aggregate losses by as much as 75%.
The cost of dust control can more than pay for itself with the benefits of soil stabilization, reduced material loss and reduced need for blade maintenance.
