Dust Control for Paper Mills & Log Yards

RDS38 Road Dust Stabilizer provides 3 to 4 months of dust control per application, making it suitable for high-traffic log yard roads. Glycerin DC-100 lasts approximately 3 to 4 weeks per application, with subsequent applications covering up to approximately 26,000 sq. ft. per tote. RDS38 is reinvigorated by rain rather than washed away.

Glycerin DC-100 is the main environmentally focused option in this lineup. It is 100% biodegradable, food-derived from soy oil, and listed as safe for aquatic life, making it useful where environmental sensitivity is a priority. Customers should still review product SDS materials and site-specific environmental requirements before use near waterways.

ZHP Water Wetter and Glycerin DC-100 can be applied through suitable spray equipment or watering programs. ZHP Water Wetter is introduced at a ratio of 1,500 to 3,000 parts water to 1 part surfactant, while Glycerin DC-100 can be spray-applied for shorter-term dust suppression. RDS38 Road Dust Stabilizer is delivered and applied by Zircon as a turnkey service, with application included in the product price.

Compliance-related claims vary by product and site use. ZHP Water Wetter is designed to address OSHA 1926.1153 surfactant requirements for asphalt milling machine dust control. RDS38 Road Dust Stabilizer supports proactive dust management for industrial roads and helps meet the demands of EPA and neighborhood groups. Customers should review product documentation, SDS materials, and site-specific regulatory requirements before making compliance decisions.

ZHP Water Wetter is available in 5-gallon pails, 55-gallon drums, 330-gallon totes, and bulk tanks (minimum 1,500 gallons). Glycerin DC-100 is packaged in 330-gallon totes. RDS38 is delivered and applied directly as a turnkey service, so no individual packaging purchase is required — contact Zircon for site-specific volume requirements.

Consider three factors: traffic intensity, surface type, and environmental sensitivity. High-traffic unpaved log yard roads are best suited to RDS38 Road Dust Stabilizer. Gravel surfaces or moderate-duty roads may be suitable for Glycerin DC-100. For water-truck programs, ZHP Water Wetter can improve water coverage and penetration while reducing watering frequency over time. Contact Zircon at 800-547-4328 for product guidance.
