Soilworks products are the industry’s top standard due to our insistence on creating high performance soil stabilization and dust control products that stand up to rigorous testing – both in the lab and in the field. Our commitment to quality and performance has led to our involvement and testing in hundreds of real-world situations. The following library of reports, presentations, specifications, approvals and other similar documents provide you, our customer, the transparency and dependable assurance that is expected from Soilworks.
Presented at the 2008 Road Dust Management Practices and Future Needs Conference, this U.S. Army Corps of Engineers briefing outlines research findings and field evaluations of dust control solutions for military environments. Key testing areas included helicopter landing zones, unpaved convoy routes, and airfields across various soil and climate conditions. The evaluation emphasized performance metrics such as particulate reduction, soil stability, and visual clarity during operations involving ground vehicles and rotary-wing aircraft. The report calls for the establishment of a qualified product list and national protocol for environmental acceptance of dust suppressants used on military infrastructure.
Soiltac and Durasoil—manufactured by Soilworks—align with the performance objectives identified in this research, offering validated solutions for dust mitigation, visibility control, and surface stabilization. Soiltac’s copolymer emulsion forms a flexible, durable crust suitable for helipads and unpaved roads, while Durasoil’s synthetic organic fluid delivers waterless, reworkable suppression in extreme operational climates. For defense logistics planners, engineering units, and facility managers seeking products compatible with future Corps of Engineers specifications, Soilworks provides high-performance technologies supported by field testing and military readiness standards.
Objective – to provide quantifiable product assessment under expected usage conditions – Traffic/Soil/Climate. Evaluation Methods – Dust particle collection/Visual Inspections/Soil property measurements.
