MIDWEST’S GSA IS YOUR DO-IT-YOURSELF DUST CONTROL SOLUTION.
MIDWEST’S GUIDED SELF-APPLY IS YOUR DO-IT-YOURSELF DUST CONTROL SOLUTION.
You’ll have complete flexibility to conduct dust control when you need it. The Midwest Guided Self-Apply (GSA) program is perfect if you prefer DIY, but need the tools and technical support to do so.
YOU use your own vehicles and staff to perform applications.
WE provide our patented EnviroKleen dust suppressant, portable spray system, and expert guidance.
Together, we collaboratively design your GSA dust control program customized to your site-specific conditions, requirements, and performance goals. This is especially suited to small- to medium-sized for all types of industrial facilities, municipal and county roads, construction sites, storage yards, quarries and material handling sites, solar and wind farms, and environmentally sensitive areas.
50 YEARS OF DUST CONTROL LEADERSHIP
Midwest is the largest intended-use dust control product manufacturer and producer in the industry, with over four decades of designing and implementing successful dust control programs, both in the U.S. and abroad. With this kind of experience and proven performance, you can confidently rely on Midwest to craft a GSA program guaranteed to deliver predictable, reliable, and measurable results.
You can either implement your GSA program for the total area in need of dust control or you can start by treating an aisle or area to prove it is your best solution to control dust and then easily expand to other areas of your operation.

MIDWEST COLLABORATES WITH YOU
YOUR GSA PROGRAM IS FULLY CUSTOMIZED.
No two sites are the same and each situation is different. As the industry leaders in dust control, we’ve learned to avoid the same off-the-rack solution for everyone.
1. Define Program Objectives
We work with you to understand your site conditions, restrictions, performance goals, and compliance requirements.
2. Develop Your Application Plan
A site-specific strategic application plan and schedule are created to achieve the defined objectives using the least amount of product.
3. Train Your Team
Midwest’s Field Application Specialists provide hands-on training to your staff for equipment setup, operation, and application techniques.
4. Optimize and Verify Performance
Midwest provides ongoing technical support to ensure the GSA program meets your dust control objectives and to make necessary modifications for optimal performance.
THE MIDWEST DIFFERENCE: A FULL GSA PROGRAM RATHER THAN JUST BUYING A PRODUCT.
Many companies will be satisfied to sell you a product. Midwest doesn’t satisfy that easily. We’ve built our reputation and become the leader in the industry through decades of perfecting comprehensive dust control programs to solve the most complex dust problems on the most challenging sites.
We also partner with you, with a Guided Self-Apply program that complements what we do with what you do. Together, we create the application plan. Then, you use your own vehicle (pickup truck, flatbed, or other) and staff to perform dust control applications, while Midwest provides the state-of-the-art product (EnviroKleen), user-friendly spray equipment (1500 Portable Sprayer), and technical support (training, testing, optimization).

A Closer Look
ENVIROKLEEN IS THE BREAKTHROUGH THAT STARTED IT ALL.
Midwest’s GSA is a complete and comprehensive program, the core of which is EnviroKleen, the world’s first Synthetic Organic Dust Control® solution. This proprietary formulation has been engineered to solve the root cause of dust, unlike ordinary, traditional temporary dust suppressants.
Our innovative KleenBinder® technology uses large, high molecular-weight branched molecules to create powerful cohesive and adhesive forces that physically entangle and lock dust particles together, creating a dust-free surface that withstands rain, traffic, and repeated rework. The result is a dust-free surface that delivers superior longevity and performance while exceeding the most rigorous environmental standards. In fact, Midwest has more environmental certificates and testing than anyone in the industry.
INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY ENGINEERED FOR PROVEN PERFORMANCE.
TWO-PART PATENTED SYSTEM — EnviroKleen combines an engineered synthetic fluid with the viscoelastic KleenBinder system to deliver unmatched, long-term dust control on unpaved surfaces.
UNIFORM PENETRATION AND PARTICLE COATING — EnviroKleen’s synthetic carrier fluid penetrates the unpaved surface, uniformly distributing the KleenBinder technology evenly and coating individual particles to a depth of several inches.
INNOVATIVE VISCOELASTIC PARTICLE BINDING — KleenBinder technology consists of large, highly branched polymer molecules that form a viscoelastic network, creating strong adhesive and cohesive forces that lock soil and aggregate particles in place.
EXTREME DURABILITY — KleenBinder technology adheres permanently to each dust particle and cannot be displaced by water or traffic.
MOST SIGNIFICANT PROPERTIES
- Synthetic, organic dust control chemistry with KleenBinder technology
- Clear and odorles
- Non-corrosive
- Non-hazardous
- Not soluble in water
- Constantly active, does not cure
- Eco-friendly
- Ready to use
SUPERIOR TO ORDINARY DUST SUPPRESSANTS
- Predictable and reliable long-term performance
- Engineered specifically for dust control and fines preservation
- Addresses the root cause of dust; proactive – not reactive
- Improves road surface condition, durability, and strength
- Tested and proven to be eco-friendly and suitable for the most eco-sensitive areas
- Applied neat, with no mixing or diluting necessary

- EnviroKleen can be trafficked immediately following application
OUR GSA SUCCESSES ARE PROVEN
MIDWEST HAS THE MOST TESTED, PROVEN, AND VALIDATED DUST CONTROL PROGRAMS ON THE MARKET.
We focus on the long-term. Temporary results are by definition short-term, limiting their value to your operations. Instead, the Midwest Guided Self-Apply program is developed for long-term fines preservation and surface improvement that actually improves the road surface.
This program maintains the road’s as-constructed state, significantly reducing maintenance and repair activities. We do so through a proactive application strategy that uses the least volume of product needed to get the set result goals.
REAL SCIENCE YIELDS REAL RESULTS
MIDWEST NEVER MAKES CLAIMS WE CAN’T PROVE.

Project Summary
Location: Midwest US
Industry: Industrial Facility
Customer: Steel Producer
An industrial facility faced persistent fugitive dust issues on unpaved surfaces within a steel laydown yard. Heavy equipment movement and frequent turning pulverized the surface aggregate, increasing fine particulate and airborne dust that negatively impacted employee health, visibility, and equipment air filtration systems. The facility required a solution that was effective, economical, and easy to implement without outsourcing the work.

Challenges
- Persistent road dust diminished the quality of life for residents living nearby.
- Ordinary dust control treatments were inconsistent and ineffective.
- The Public Works Department (PWD) was faced with a high maintenance burden and increasing resident dissatisfaction.
- The PWD needed a solution that preserved their unpaved roads (comprised of A-1-a aggregate), eliminated dust, required infrequent applications and posed no harm to the environment.
Project Summary
Location: Georgia
Industry: Municipal Roads
Customer: Public Works Department
