Vegetation Promoting Dust Suppressant – Aqueous Solution
Description
AD-TEK VPDS is an organic, eco-friendly liquid dust suppressant. AD-TEK VPDS is sprayed onto an unprepared surface, consolidating the soil to form a bonded crusty layer.
AD-TEK VPDS is a natural material derived from a vegetative saccharide compound and contains mainly salts of carbonic acids which feed and stimulate plant root development. The salts of carbonic acids also energise the biological life of the soil, stimulating the production of beneficial soil bacteria. The hygroscopic properties of the carbonic acid salts provide increased water sorption and water retention of the soil.
