Biological dust control:
Turn dirt into stone for better roads.

How biological dust control works
Our biological dust control method uses a natural biological process to turn dirt into stone. It creates a solid, durable layer on dusty roads, preventing particle erosion and dust emission. This process mimics the way nature binds particles together, ensuring long term road stabilisation and dust suppression. It’s long-lasting, so uses 90% less water than outdated plain water approaches to dust control.

solid roads
Stabilise roads and reduce road maintenance
As strong as bitumen, with none of the downsides, biological dust control stabilises the surface wearing course layer to reduce wear and tear on roads. It creates a smooth, low friction layer that massively reduces road and equipment maintenance, saving time and resources on road repairs.

Control dust on tailings storage facilities & stockpiles

Tailing with very loose and fine powdered material
Biological dust control isn’t just for roads. It’s also a safe way to reduce dust fallout from tailings and stockpiles.
Tailings dust poses a risk to the environment and community so must be kept under control. Unlike traditional options such as polymers, our biological approach needs less frequent application, uses less water, and is biodegradable. The solid crust it creates actually strengthens the surface of the dam and this improves as it is re-applied over time.

Tailing bound with Terrabind forms a solid crust. No more dust and free particles.
In windy conditions, mine stockpiles can just blow away causing product loss and reducing productivity. Biological dust control can be used to secure the surface of stockpiles while being a clean, lower-carbon alternative to chemical solutions that are widely used in the industry.
responsible mining
Clean and safe for the community and environment

Biological dust control not only reduces airborne particles and improves air quality for nearby communities, it’s also cleaner for the environment.
With this new, proven dust control method, mining companies can safeguard ecosystems, keep waterways clean, and contribute to healthier living conditions for workers and local residents. Discover how Terrabind is cleaner and safer for people, plants, and animals.

We are reaping the rewards of implementing Bind-X on our mine. It’s reduced dust for the local community, is far less maintenance on our haul roads, and is cleaner for the environment.
