Dust Stop is a dry powder, that when mixed in the right ratio with water, becomes a potent weapon against fugitive dust. This is necessary to not only help protect property, but also the health hazard of the people in arid regions.

Fugitive dust is a solid particle with a size of 10 micrometers or smaller. These fine particles have the ability to stay airborne for days to weeks. The extent of their capability to stay airborne has been shown when evidence of sand that originated from northern Africa was found in North America. Scientists have tracked particles from sandstorms that have traveled into the stratosphere and stayed suspended while over the Atlantic. This is an extreme case, but does happen and illustrates the extent of the problem.

Dust Stop is a product that is 100 percent friendly to the environment and has been proven to be effective in reducing dust from any type of soil. This product starts as a powder and is distributed after it is mixed with water. Once applied, Dust Stop will form a film over the soil or road that will reduce the amount of fugitive dust that is transported to the air. This film is resistant to decomposing from the suns UV rays and naturally occurring enzymes. This effective dust controlling agent has also shown that it will still be effective after rain has fallen on treated areas.

The results from trial tests were so positive that the state of Oregon has approved Dust Stop for use by the Oregon Department of Transportation for use on soil as a stabilizer and dust control agent on roads and other applicable areas. Dust Stop is currently one of the best products for controlling the ever growing problem of fugitive dust.
