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.
This U.S. Marine Corps dust abatement guide delivers a tactical overview of dust suppression strategies for military environments, including airfields, helipads, roads, and base camps. The manual emphasizes the use of three key product categories—polymer emulsions, synthetic fluids, and polysaccharides—while highlighting performance differences critical for operational planning. Soilworks’ products are prominently featured, with Gorilla-Snot (a copolymer emulsion) and Durasoil (a synthetic organic fluid) identified as mission-capable solutions due to their durability, ease of application, and suitability for diverse soil and traffic conditions.
Soiltac, another Soilworks solution, is also implied within the polymer emulsion category for use in both topical and admix applications. The document details application techniques, dilution ratios, compaction procedures, and logistics planning—underscoring how Gorilla-Snot’s 0.44 gsy application rate and Durasoil’s ready-to-use format reduce equipment downtime and enhance field efficiency. Compared to traditional materials like chlorides or lignosulfonates, these advanced synthetic and polymer-based dust control agents offer greater longevity, weather resistance, and environmental compatibility. For military operations requiring rapid deployment and sustained ground stability, Soilworks provides combat-proven dust control technologies.
