Delivering Earth-Conscious Solutions for Over 40 Years
The Leading Dust Control, Soil Stabilization, Lubrication and Anti-icing/Deicing Programs

THE TECHNOLOGY & INNOVATION LEADER.

45 years of proven, Earth-conscious, next generation solutions for roads, runways, rail, mines and industrial facilities.

Midwest solves problems for customers. We can prove every result and we guarantee every promise. Every day, we seek new ways to solve old problems, and we work with our customers, so our programs seamlessly blend into their operations.

PERFECTING CHEMISTRY — IN THE LAB & ON THE SITE.

It starts with chemistry, but it’s really people helping people. Midwest invents and innovates with the industry’s leading dust control, soil stabilization, lubrication and anti-icing/deicing programs by using science and chemistry to create new formulations, new application equipment and new improvements. That’s chemistry in the lab.

We also care about doing the right thing for the right reason, using expertise to bring about positive change — if you work, play, drive, fly, haul, farm, defend, eat or drink. Anybody can sell you a product, but Midwest is hungry to collaboratively create full programs that solve problems, save time and increase productivity. We work with you and always continue to support you. That’s chemistry on the site.

Welcome to our world of helping people live and work better.

WE ARE HERE FOR THE CUSTOMERS WE SERVE.

Solving complex problems and never settling for “good enough.

PERFORMANCE DELIVERED. PROOF PROVIDED.

We live for facts and analysis and reasoning and evidence-based recommendations. Midwest leads the industry because we don’t make claims we can’t back up with scientifically supported proof of effectiveness.

Proprietary Midwest chemistry, combined with application processes perfected over our 45-year history, remain the industry’s most advanced — as substantiated by data.

Midwest brings our customers more solutions, documentation and support than any other manufacturer. On a daily basis, we challenge ourselves to become even more accessible problem-solvers so we can set a new industry standard for proactive and responsive service.

Additionally, Midwest’s field team conducts periodic assessments and testing over time to ensure that the performance and quality is exceeding expectations.

We Guarantee Our Promise

Midwest delivers regulatory-compliant, environmentally safe solutions to industries whose success depends on preventing or overcoming dust, friction, ice, or unstable soil.

We strive, always, to deliver the best possible solution — sometimes to a problem that had not yet been recognized — at the best possible price so we can save our customers money over the long term. We independently measure customer satisfaction, and internally gauge our success not only by pre-determined metrics but also through our zero-tolerance approach to customer dissatisfaction.

We have been a member of the INC. 5000 list of the America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies in 2015, 2014, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009 and 2007.

One phone call to Midwest is all it takes for effective and ecologically sound dust control, erosion control, soil stabilization and anti-icing solutions. We develop environmentally-safe products in our own lab so that our customers fulfill regulatory requirements as well as their own and their customers’ wishes to be gentle on our planet — all while getting the job done. Not so gentle on ourselves, we tenaciously pursue groundbreaking solutions for simple and complex problems and strive to deliver them with standard-setting service so our customers will never have to turn elsewhere.

Ultimately, Midwest is different because we deliver long-term customer solutions that combine a value life cycle with partnership.
