Arizona Dust Control Expertise
Arizona dust control is tricky. Maintaining safe travel and preventing unnecessary community health issues is challenging in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tucson, Flagstaff, Yuma, and other Arizona cities and towns. The type of soil found in Arizona can be hard to secure, long term, with just blading and watering. In fact, that approach could cost your roads department more. A solid Arizona dust control plan from Desert Mountain Corporation using environmentally friendly products will ensure that the important, highly-traveled areas like these are not causing heath and safety issues:
- bus routes
- rural main roads
- parking lots
- access roads
- mine haul roads
- construction yards
To be sure these are all safe for the surrounding communities, local residents, and visitors – dust control products are often used. Private companies and government agencies must ensure that the parking lots and dirt roads that they are responsible for don’t cause health or safety issues. City and county road departments, landfills and water treatment plants, Bureau of Land Management, and Forestry departments are but a few of the government agencies responsible for the over 5,000 miles of dirt roads in Arizona.
Dust Control Products
The products from Desert Mountain Corporation for dust control are eco-friendly and non-toxic – not harmful to humans, animals, or plants when properly applied. And our sales and application teams will work with you to ensure that the road or lot is properly prepped and follow-up maintenance is performed. We offer the following products to meet your dust control and soil stabilization needs:
RoadSaver – a high-grade magnesium chloride product that performs well in most soil types. It is a hygroscopic compound that attracts moisture from the air and resists evaporation.
DuraBlend – An innovative blend of magnesium chloride and performance-enhancing polymers, DuraBlend contains fewer chlorides and designed for dust control in environmentally sensitive areas.
Road Loc – An all-natural organic polymer designed for road stabilization. Road Loc is an environmentally friendly product derived from the tree pulping industry.
Dura-Loc combines the best of lignin sulfonate, an organic material and eco-friendly polymers for a dust control, soil, and road stabilization solution that works. It binds the fine particles found in aggregate and natural soils reducing breaking outs. Dura-Loc helps preserve the blading and other road work, preventing the road from getting rough and creating fugitive dust.
DMC Blend is specifically formulated with our best-selling products – Road Loc®, RoadSaver®, and other proprietary solutions – customized to give it a superior binding capability by gluing road base particles of all sizes together.
BaseBind – Mixed-in with aggregates or recycled asphalt or applied topically, it will stabilize roads and parking lots with long-lasting results.

Safety and Cost Savings
Plan for environmentally friendly Arizona dust control using solutions and soil stabilization products from Desert Mountain Corporation. They will benefit rural and metro communities by improving:
- Travel safety
- Wear and tear on equipment
- Bottom line equipment expenses
- Wash boarding and fewer potholes
- Working and travel conditions
- Public relations
- Dust-related employee illnesses
Water Doesn’t Always Work
Some companies and government divisions will use only water to control the dust. That’s fine for a short-term project directly in the work area, but if your project or event is going to go longer, or if there is a lot of equipment or traffic traveling in and out of the job site, applying an environmentally friendly dust control solution will make more long-term financial sense. For rural high traffic areas like main county roads, bus routes, or busy parking lots, more stabilization is needed and our products will provide it.
