Water$ave Dust Suppression: Smarter Control for Safer Sites

Dust is one of the most persistent challenges across farms, civil works, construction projects, & mine sites. Left unmanaged, dust isn’t just a nuisance, it poses serious risks to safety, productivity & the environment. Traditional dust suppression methods, such as constant watering, can be costly & inefficient, using up valuable resources without delivering lasting results. Water$ave Dust Suppression (DS), developed by Polymer Innovations, provides a smarter solution. By using advanced polymer technology, Water$ave DS improves water efficiency while offering longer-lasting dust control for unsealed roads, stockpiles, yards & work areas.

How Water$ave DS Works

Water$ave DS is a lineal anionic polyacrylamide (PAM) supplied in powdered form. When dissolved in water & applied to dusty surfaces, it changes the physical properties of the water:

• The viscosity increases, meaning water coats surfaces more effectively.
• Fine dust particles are bound together, forming heavier, more stable aggregates.
• A light, flexible crust forms on the surface, holding dust in place even under wind or light traffic.

This process allows water to last longer on the surface & reduces evaporation, so less water is needed to achieve effective dust suppression.

Benefits of Using Water$ave DS

Switching to Water$ave DS offers a range of advantages compared to traditional watering alone:

• Reduced Water Use – Use up to 50% less water while achieving better dust control.
• Lower Costs – Fewer water cart runs mean savings on fuel, labour & equipment wear.
• Improved Safety – Reduces airborne dust, improving visibility & working conditions.
• Environmental Protection – Non-toxic, biodegradable & safe for use near livestock & vegetation.
• Simple Application – Mix with water in a cart, tank, or sprayer & apply as normal.

Where to Use Water$ave DS

Water$ave DS is versatile & effective across a wide range of settings:

• Mine haul roads & access tracks
• Construction sites & civil works
• Unsealed farm roads & yards
• Stockpiles, laydown areas & open surfaces

Wherever dust poses a safety hazard or environmental concern, Water$ave DS provides a reliable, easy-to-use solution.
