Polymer Innovations In Road Stabilisation

Polymer Innovations works closely with industries especially to help them maintain safe working environments that assist with the health & safety of workers, their families & local residents. Many of these heavy industries such as mining & construction are located in remote locations & utilise dirt or unsealed private & public roads constantly.

Treated Road In A Hunter Valley Mine

Due to the huge amounts of stress these roads regularly receive they soon lose stability & erode. Spilling & leaching toxic dirt, mud & water pollution into nearby land & waterways affects employees, residents & the local environment.

Road stabilisation is important in maintaining our landscapes integrity by stopping the leaching of water based & airborne pollution, preventing hard panning & increased salt content of soils, protect native land & increase the strength of roads & embankments.

Road stabilisation, soil erosion & dust pollution problems are dealt with quickly by Polymer Innovations specific polymer products. That are easy to apply, cost effective, biodegradable, non-toxic & environmentally friendly.

Water$ave Flobind is a lineal polymer that is used for soil erosion control, road stablisation, dust suppression, dam sealing & hydroseeding. Flobind is a lineal polymer in powdered form that instead of forming a gel as most of our polymers do, Flobind turns into a slime.

Water$ave Flobind is extremely versatile & can assist with all water & pollution issues. It flocculates suspended fine soil particles & stabilises existing soil structure. Flobind is also ideal for smaller applications where powder or emulsion dosing systems are not practical.

This polymer gives us an even greater ability to customise a solution for your water & pollution problems. Whether it is used on its own or mixed with other blends our ability to cater a solution for you is assured.

Suppressing dust & light soil in the air is important in many ways. Such as keeping people & animals free from allergies & asthma, reducing soil erosion, ecological damage & airborne pollution. Also, reducing wear & tear on nearby expensive equipment.  

Finding ways to effectively control it in a simple & cost effective manner is beneficial for everyone. Polymer Innovations meets this demand with a specific & extremely cost effective polymer blend for dust pollution control Water$ave DS Dust Suppression. Local coal mines in the Hunter Valley with serious dust concerns use Water$ave DS Dust Suppression on a regular basis.

Before W$DS & ....After W$DS

Water$ave Dust Suppression is an effective dust stabilising agent for soil waste & mineral dumps; civil & commercial construction sites; open cut & underground mines; coal stock pile management; quarries & landfills; unpaved roads; parking lots & open areas; dirt roads; airstrips & other dust prone areas.

Water$ave DS offers a quick, safe & cost effective solution that reduces the amount & the frequency of cart watering. No matter the scale Polymer Innovations staff will provide the best dust suppressant solution to keep your environment clear & it's inhabitants breathing easier.

Polymer Innovations develops specific polymer blends that address the unique requirements of industries exposed to hazardous or toxic slimes & sludges. Our SAP Range (Super Absorbent Polymers) absorb large quantities of toxins in water & hold them stable for removal for mining, construction & governments roadways; dredging & other industrial waste water affected areas.

Toxic water ingress issues are dealt with quickly by our SAP polymer blends. SAP reduces damage to the surrounding environment & removes hazardous material from the work area that can be caused by toxic water & mud slurries. This ability to cater to the unique requirements of our clients allows us to control toxic water based pollution from some of Australia's most pristine environments & productive industries.

SAP Testing

Depending on the type of polymer used & it's blend ratio; the toxic sludge can retain a certain amount of moisture when the water is absorbed holding the slurry or slime stable. This is important to keep the integrity of the mixture so it holds together while it is being handled & moved.

Polymer Innovations are specialists in striking the perfect balance of sludge & moisture required to reduce the weight added by the polymer while maintaining it's structural integrity. Toxic water slurries that are too thick to pump or too watery to shovel up, can be thickened quickly by adding SAP HD & HPF allowing for fast & easy removal.

Hydroseeding is used to seed grass on commercial sites, highways or motorways, parks & golf courses, heavily damaged or burnt land, lawns & areas too large, inaccessible or unsuitable for conventional methods. Once it is applied to the soil, it enhances growth by providing an ideal environment for seed germination.

Water$ave HY Hydro can be efficiently applied for hydroseeding operations in mountainous areas or road embankments. Maximising plant establishment & holds the components together preventing loss of material through wind & water erosion.

Water$ave HY Hydro prevents cellulose mulch from becoming hardpan during a dry spell. The mulch remains aerated allowing the seeds to sprout quickly. Water$ave HY also reduces the amount of mulch needed. Polymer Innovations Water$ave HY Hydro is highly effective in the young regrowth of trees, shrubs, bushes & saplings to assist in revegetation & reforestation.

Deforestation of native vegetation creates many problems such as soil erosion or air pollution. Ecological destruction effects all animal & plant species which then contributes to disease, food shortages & an imbalance in ecosystems that we share.

W$PT Perfect For Native Saplings

Polymer Innovations Water$avePT Plantation is effective in the revegetation & reforestation of roadside trees, bushes, tube stock & saplings.

Water$ave PT reduces the mortality rate caused by transplant shock & also enhances root development, encouraging more rapid growth & production.

Water$ave PT reduces the leaching of any introduced fertilizer, minimising evaporation from the soil whilst improving porosity & aeration. It is a specific blend of anionic cross-linked & lineal polymers that can be added either in wet hydrated or dry form to the planting hole.
