Ecobond polymer soil stabilizers

Soil is a super abundant natural building material which is available on most sites at little or no cost, yet, quite useless if allowed to turn to dust or mud.

Ecobond hardened soil dramatically increases the water resistance and strength of soil creating a new, cost effective and durable building material.

Approximately 3% Ecobond combined with most soils dispels the inherent flaws of soil and transforms it into an excellent building material for the construction of roads, houses, dams and many other applications. Ecobond works well with most soil types, preferably less than 20% clay, Ecobond does not glue rocks together, a finer aggregate is required between rocks.

Since soil can be transformed into a useable and durable building material, Ecobond can be used to construct high quality roads at very low cost. In this application (see image), the on site soil was combined with Ecobond, compacted and a 6mm bitumen slurry was used to seal the road. The road has carried more than 15 million vehicles (1000 large trucks per day) since 1996. The completed road costs considerably less than a conventional road.

Ecobond can be used in many fields as a new low cost solution:

Roads:
Vastly improved bearing capacity and weather resistance of gravel or surfaced roads, driveways, parking lots, yards, pavements, paths and pothole repairs, etc.

Structures:
Walls, floors, foundations of houses, schools, clinics, offices, factories, shops, sheds, embankments, and support structures.

Water Storage:
Dams, ponds, canals, tanks, waterproofing, riverbanks, dykes, erosion and mud control.

Stabilisation:
Embankments, railway lines, dust control, underground grouting, tunnels, basements, fence posts, pylons, poles, pipes, surface coatings, landing strips, sports fields, military, waste/pollution control, artificial rocks, statues or decorative features.
