What do roads have to do with the quality of wine you drink? A lot, if you ask one Californian vineyard who recently partnered with Midwest. When this vineyard reached out to us, their current private roads within their ranch weren’t capable of supporting farm equipment and vehicle traffic year-round. They were concerned about the type of product they used …
Why Do Dust Control Systems Fail?
“I’ve used everything, and Midwest is the only program that’s actually worked.” At Midwest, we hear this line over and over again after customers throw their hands in the air after using many other dust control systems. We’ve been doing this for a long time now; nearly five decades, longer than just about anyone else in the industry. During that …
The Solution to Lignin Sulfonate Dust Control Products
There are many approaches to dust control. From watering to chlorides to lignin sulfonate dust control products, the dust control industry has tried just about everything. Many companies who have tried off-the-shelf chemicals have been frustrated by the various problems associated with these products. Either the product is toxic for the environment and corrosive to vehicles, like chlorides. Or it …
A Case Study in Self Applied Dust Control
At Midwest, we’ve spent decades developing the most scientifically advanced self applied dust control methods in some of the harshest conditions on the planet. Over time, as our engineers and scientists have gained application experience and our technologies have evolved, we’ve developed a sophisticated method to allow smaller sites and facilities to achieve the same dust control results from Midwest’s …
The Problem with Cheap Dust Control Approaches
When most people think of dust control, they think of water or cheap dust control products like chlorides. It makes sense: most people see dust control as a one-and-done deal — when you see dust, throw something on it, and it goes away. Unfortunately, it’s a little more complicated than that. There’s a whole science to dust control; if you …
