Erosion Control with DirtGlue
DirtGlue
Polymer Emulsions are
environmentally-friendly polymers that can be used effectively as a
surface application for erosion control/bank stabilization, tackifier for
hydroseeding process, storage pile capping and application on other
non-traffic surfaces to be protected from wind or water erosion.
DirtGlue Polymer Emulsions will hold a mulch or straw matrix in place preventing
erosion and keeping the mulch looking new longer. This has many
applications, including landscaping for large and small jobs, even on very
steep slopes. Application rates depend on performance requirements.
Costs are in $US FOB Amesbury MA. Shipping costs are not included.
Storm Water
Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) by Dirt Glue Enterprises
When
development commences the first thing on everyone's mind these days is the
Clean Water Act and creating a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan.
Because of the effectiveness of DirtGlue products they should be spec'd
into every SWPPP to give the developer the best possible protection from
regulatory issues but often times due to lack of awareness of these
products this does not happen. For example, the use of DirtGlue Light
polymer emulsion can be thought of as a proactive approach to the control
or elimination of TSS in stormwater run-off. Hay bales and silt fence on the
other hand are actually reactive. The engineer and the excavating
contractor both know that disturbed soil will lead to high TSS in the
run-off so their solution is to catch the sediment after it is already on
the move. The better approach would be to apply DirtGlue as the soil on
site is disrupted and prevent or minimize the "fines", sediments, and soil
from moving in the first place. This has the benefit of preventing the
siltfence from becoming overwhelmed and it also prevents drainage swales,
drainage structures, etc from excess siltation.
Once the project is underway, stockpiles can be capped to prevent
windborne erosion and subsequent dust problems as well as prevent the
fines from being washed out of the piles during rain events. Temporary
embankment stabilization is fast, simple and very effective with DirtGlue.
Also
hydro-seed applications benefit because germination is assured and
washouts are almost nonexistent.

DirtGlue is a superior
replacement
for conventional tackifier in hydroseeding applications. It holds seed and
topsoil in place even on very steep embankments and during extremes of
runoff. DirtGlue Polymer Emulsion increases the rate of germination and decreases
germination time. Because it eliminates washouts a more uniform crop can
be produced. Application rates depend upon severity of slope and
performance requirements.

Erosion Control with DirtGlue Polymer Emulsions and Fiber
Fiber such as cellulose, paper, wood, straw, etc. added to DirtGlue PE
results in a superior alternative to regular bonded fiber matrix
applications. Excellent erosion control even on extreme embankments.
Application rates depend upon performance requirements.
Costs are in $US FOB Amesbury MA. Shipping costs are not included.
