Dust emissions from unpaved roads can impair the vision of drivers and be a safety hazard. From a road agency perspective, the loss of fine particles from unpaved roads can reduce surface longevity and increase maintenance costs. Dust can also have environmental and economic implications, like reduced crop yields.

Milligan Dust Suppressant adheres to surfaces, physically binding fine particles together to increase particle mass and cohesion. An environmentally sound alternative to chloride salt products and petroleum-based suppressants. Dust Suppressant enhances the cohesive properties of road aggregate, which can assist road-bearing capacity. Dust suppressants will increase surface tension and repel water allowing the road surface to drain quickly after heavy downpours. This firmer, more stable, dust-free road surface resulting from treatment with Milligan Dust Suppressant reduces the need for frequent road repair and ongoing grading.
