Dust suppression

Erosion Control Co Ltd has several methods of dust control in our arsenal and we consider ourselves to be experts in this field.

Short Term: Erosion Control Co Ltd have developed a special product that will instantly eliminate dust. Our product achieves this by creating a crust over the soil that prevents dust caused by the wind.

Long Term: One of the best ways to eliminate dust is to establish a cover of grass. This is usually done by conventional tractor grassing methods. However there is a significant time lag between the planting of the grass seeds and enough grass plants present to prevent surface erosion by the wind. This can be addressed by mulching over the tractor grassed areas, providing immediate dust suppression and allowing you to continue working your site longer.

Erosion Control Co Ltd is happy to consult on any surface erosion problem you may have, and help with the most economical/ best solution.

Unique Solutions

Problem: A great example of this service was the Auckland Airport where it was imperative that the dust was prevented from entering the planes engines.

Solution: This was easily achieved by one of our special mixes that included a strong tackifier holding the ground surface together. Daily watering along with liquid fertilizer had the grass established in a very short time.
