A Smarter Approach to Dust
Move beyond short-lived water-only suppression
Dust from unsealed roads and exposed surfaces can affect visibility, worker amenity, nearby facilities, vehicle cleanliness and the condition of surrounding areas.
Watering can provide short-term relief, but untreated surfaces may dry quickly and require frequent reapplication—particularly in hot, dry and high-traffic environments.
Surekleen Dusty is designed to help bind fine surface particles, supporting improved dust control and more stable surface conditions when used as part of an appropriate site-specific application program.
The Dust Challenge
Dust affects more than appearance
Uncontrolled dust can create operational, environmental and maintenance challenges across active sites.
Water Demand
Frequent water-only suppression can place ongoing demand on water, equipment, operators and application schedules.
Site Amenity
Dust can migrate toward workshops, offices, accommodation areas, neighbouring properties and sensitive equipment.
Maintenance
Persistent fine dust can increase cleaning requirements across vehicles, buildings and operational infrastructure.
How Dusty Works
Helping fine particles bind into a more stable surface
Dusty uses lignosulfonate-based technology to help bind fine surface material. When correctly diluted and applied, the solution penetrates the road or surface layer and supports particle cohesion as moisture reduces.
The appropriate application approach depends on the surface material, traffic volume, climate, condition of the road and the customer’s dust-control objectives.
1
Assess the surface and operating conditions
2
Prepare the product at the appropriate dilution
3
Apply evenly using suitable watering equipment
4
Monitor performance and adjust the program as required
Applications
Suitable for a range of unsealed surfaces
Dusty may be considered for sites where traffic, climate and surface conditions contribute to ongoing airborne dust.
Mine-Site Roads
Access roads, service roads and selected traffic areas within mining and resources operations.
Civil Construction
Temporary access roads, project compounds, haul routes and earthworks areas.
Industrial Hardstands
Unsealed yards, laydown areas, storage zones and operational hardstand surfaces.
Regional Roads
Selected unsealed roads, access routes and high-use regional surfaces subject to appropriate assessment.
Potential Benefits
Build a more effective dust-control program
Site outcomes depend on correct product selection, preparation, application, road condition, weather and traffic. When Dusty is used appropriately, it may support several operational improvements.
Reduced Airborne Dust
Helps bind fine particles that would otherwise become airborne.
Improved Visibility
Can support clearer conditions around treated traffic areas.
Longer Treatment Effect
May provide more persistent control than water-only application.
Reduced Watering Frequency
May reduce the frequency of water-only suppression cycles.
Improved Site Amenity
Helps manage dust around operational and occupied areas.
Flexible Application
Can be applied using suitable water trucks and spraying equipment.
Surekleen Dusty
A purpose-built dust suppressant for Australian conditions
Dusty is supplied as a concentrated liquid and is intended to be diluted and applied using suitable equipment as part of a planned dust-control program.
Product suitability, dilution and application frequency should be determined with consideration of site-specific conditions and the latest product information.
- Lignosulfonate-based formulation
- Concentrated liquid format
- Suitable for selected unsealed surfaces

Site-Specific Implementation
Start with the surface, traffic and operating objective
Effective dust suppression is not a universal one-rate process. A suitable program considers the characteristics of the site before product is applied.
- Surface material and existing road condition
- Traffic type, speed and frequency
- Climate, rainfall and evaporation conditions
- Available watering and application equipment
- Target treatment area and performance objective
- Maintenance and reapplication requirements
Frequently Asked Questions
Understanding Dusty
What is Surekleen Dusty?
Surekleen Dusty is a concentrated lignosulfonate-based dust suppressant designed for selected unsealed roads, traffic areas, hardstands and exposed surfaces.
How is Dusty applied?
Dusty is diluted and evenly applied using suitable watering or spraying equipment. The correct process depends on the surface, traffic, climate and required outcome.
Can Dusty replace water carts?
Dusty is generally applied using water-cart or suitable spraying equipment. Its role is to improve particle binding and potentially reduce the frequency of water-only dust suppression.
How often does it need to be reapplied?
Reapplication frequency varies according to traffic, weather, surface condition, preparation and the original application. Performance should be monitored as part of the site program.
Is Dusty suitable for every road?
No single dust suppressant is suitable for every surface or operating condition. Product suitability should be assessed using site information and current technical documentation.
Where can I obtain technical and safety information?
Current product and Safety Data Sheet information is available through Woollahra Group. Contact our team if you need help reviewing the product for a proposed application.
