The Problem: Dust, Runoff, and SWPPP Compliance
For construction companies, dust control and runoff management are persistent challenges that can lead to project delays, regulatory fines, and increased costs. Construction activities like excavation, grading, and heavy vehicle movement generate large amounts of airborne dust, which affects air quality and creates health hazards for workers and nearby communities.
Additionally, stormwater runoff can carry sediment and pollutants into local water sources, leading to potential violations of SWPPP (Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan) regulations. Traditional dust control measures—such as water trucks, chemical suppressants, and erosion control barriers—often require constant maintenance, high labor costs, and frequent reapplications to remain effective.
Traditional Dust Control Methods: Are They Cost-Effective?
Many construction sites rely on water spraying as a primary method for dust suppression. However, this method is highly inefficient, requiring daily applications and significant water usage, which leads to:
✅ High water costs due to constant reapplication
✅ Labor-intensive work requiring drivers and operators
✅ Limited long-term effectiveness, especially in dry or windy conditions
Other methods, such as chemical suppressants, silt fences, and gravel roads, provide some level of control but come with additional challenges, including environmental concerns, maintenance requirements, and expensive application costs.
So, what’s the better solution?
Introducing Insta-Crete: The Smart Choice for Dust & Erosion Control
Insta-Crete is a revolutionary, organic liquid enzyme solution designed to permanently stabilize loose soil by transforming it into a cement-like surface. Unlike traditional methods that provide only temporary relief, Insta-Crete creates a long-lasting, water-resistant base that prevents dust and erosion without the need for constant maintenance.
How Insta-Crete Works
Through a catalytic bonding process, Insta-Crete interacts with the organic components of the soil to form a solid, high-strength base. When applied to graded soil, mixed with water, compacted, and allowed to cure for 72 hours, the result is a stable, erosion-resistant surface that significantly reduces dust and runoff.
Key Benefits of Using Insta-Crete
🔹 Eliminates airborne dust – No more daily water spraying or airborne pollutants affecting workers and nearby areas.
🔹 Prevents soil erosion & runoff – Maintains site stability, reducing the risk of sediment reaching waterways.
🔹 Cuts costs & saves resources – No need for expensive water trucks, suppressants, or erosion control barriers.
🔹 Eco-friendly & regulatory compliant – Non-toxic, biodegradable, and aligned with SWPPP & EPA requirements.
🔹 Rapid application & long-term results – Cures in 72 hours, providing a durable base for roads, staging areas, and open work zones.
Why Construction Companies Are Making the Switch
“Construction companies no longer need to rely on short-term fixes.”, says Yasmin Shines, CEO of PG Chemical Co. “Insta-Crete offers a sustainable, high-performance solution that saves time and money while improving environmental compliance.”
By switching to Insta-Crete, construction contractors can:
✅ Reduce water usage and eliminate the cost of daily watering
✅ Minimize labor expenses by cutting the need for dust control crews
✅ Lower maintenance costs since Insta-Crete provides long-term dust and erosion protection
Instead of repeatedly spending money on water trucks, dust suppressants, and erosion control fences, contractors can treat their site once with Insta-Crete and maintain compliance for the long term.
