Sustainable binder for road stabilisation
Dustex® is a cost-effective, sustainable and environmentally friendly binder for road stabilisation and full-depth reclamation (FDR).
Road stabilisation and FDR improve the properties of your road base. By adding our lignosulfonate Dustex to the top 15-20 cm (6-8 inches) of the road, you can increase the load-bearing capacity and stability of the base significantly. In many cases, this is achieved without the addition of new gravel. The base will withstand greater stress, and the degradation of the overlying hard surface will be minimised.
Dustex is based on lignin, the natural binder of wood fibres in trees. Dustex has earned the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Certified Biobased Product Label.
