In a multi-phase evaluation sponsored by the U.S. Marine Corps Systems Command and conducted by the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center, Soiltac and Durasoil—manufactured by Soilworks—were rigorously tested for their effectiveness as dust palliatives on helipads and military lines of communication. Laboratory and field tests assessed crust strength, airborne dust generation, erosion resistance, and visual dust suppression under rotor wash and vehicle traffic. Soiltac consistently ranked among the top-performing products, demonstrating superior durability and surface integrity on sandy soil helipads, while Durasoil showed high effectiveness in both topical and admixture applications on unpaved roads, with up to 95% dust reduction.
Designed for military logistics and rotary-wing operations, Soiltac and Durasoil offer mission-ready solutions for minimizing dust-related hazards, foreign object debris (FOD), and visibility reduction in austere environments. Their non-corrosive, non-toxic formulations provide environmentally safe alternatives to traditional chloride-based suppressants. For defense contractors, expeditionary engineers, and military facility managers, Soilworks delivers field-tested, Department of Defense-evaluated products proven to extend surface stability and operational safety.
