Leading the fight against haul road dust contamination.
A dust free haul road results in better visibility, increased safety and extended tyre life which in turn leads to a reduction in total road user costs and an improved service provided for the haul road users.
Water savings in excess of 90% when implementing the DAS™ Road Application.

Dust poses a huge threat to people, the environment and the machinery on mines. That is why dust suppression is an important aspect of any mining business. When disturbed, dust creates poor visibility, loss of production due to machinery downtime and irreversible respiratory disease. Dust suppression takes care of these risks to enterprises.
When considering the risks to manpower and machinery it is imperative that a dust control management system should be in place on mines and other locations where dust is a problem.
The African climate is dry and the control of dust particles is therefore of paramount importance. DAS™ dust suppressant solutions can eliminate potentially hazardous situations involving dust.
A dust suppressant is the simplest and most effective of the many Dust Control Management Systems offered by DAS™.
The term ‘dust suppressant’ refers to those products and services which monitor, maintain and eliminate unwanted free particles in the air. Applied with DAS™ Dust Binding products, and multiple scalable dust suppression systems, the DAS™ team takes the industrial responsibility for dust suppression.
