YOU DON’T NEED TO DO IT ON YOUR OWN
TRUST THE EXPERTS AT MIDWEST, THE LEADERS IN CONTROLLING FUGITIVE DUST.
You no longer have to dedicate manpower and money on something that is not your area of expertise. Fugitive dust issues expose you to vulnerabilities over which you have little control and less certainty. Midwest is your perfect collaborator, for a partnership that frees you from these responsibilities to bring you the security and comfort of knowing you’re protected by the industry’s finest.
This is especially true for industrial facilities, steel mills, mining operations, storage yards, material handling yards, agricultural farms, renewable energy development sites, military facilities and training grounds, and environmentally sensitive sites. If you:
- experience environmental, compliance, and/or permitting concerns/challenges
- operate medium-to-large facilities or networks of roads
- manage complex sites with different areas and requirements
- need predictable, guaranteed dust control
- prefer focusing on your operations to managing dust control yourselves
- maintain high-trafficked areas/facilities
- possess limited internal resources
- then you are an ideal candidate for a Midwest Managed Service Dust Control Program.
MANAGED DUST CONTROL SERVICES MADE FOR YOU
WE CO-DEVELOP YOUR MANAGED SERVICE PROGRAM AROUND YOUR SITE, YOUR GOALS, AND YOUR OPERATION.
Midwest’s Managed Service Dust Control Programs deliver predictable, environmentally responsible dust control. Our Field Application Specialists handle every step — from strategic scheduling to product application — using engineered, proven chemistries designed specifically to control dust.
Dust control is an important operational function — and partnering with Midwest allows it to be managed with the same professionalism, reliability and expertise as the rest of your operation. Your team no longer has to spend time managing applications, scheduling, recordkeeping and reporting, performance monitoring, and inspections. Instead, they can get back to the business of YOUR business.
CHOOSE 1) A FULL MANAGED SERVICE PROGRAM OR 2) TURNKEY DELIVERY AND APPLICATION.
Whichever is best for you, Midwest custom builds a program around your site-specific requirements. You get proven outcomes:
1. FULL SERVICE
Midwest’s Full Managed Service Program takes control of ALL aspects of your dust control program — from applications, scheduling, inspections, performance monitoring, recordkeeping, and compliance support — so your team doesn’t have to.
Our experienced Field Application Specialists ensure your site achieves reliable, long-lasting dust control services and remains fully compliant with air quality requirements, all while improving safety, efficiency, and predictability. This program is ideal for complex, high-traffic operations that need guaranteed performance and want to eliminate the burden and risk of managing compliance-driven dust control in-house.

- Delivers product to the site
- Creates a site-specific customized application plan
- Performs professional application at scheduled intervals (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly)
- Continuously adjusts application as needed to ensure predictable and effective outcomes
- Conducts routine site inspections
- Carries out recordkeeping and reporting
- Provides air quality permitting and compliance support (OSHA, EPA, State, Local, etc.)
- Performs monitoring and data collection
- Produces annual reports
MIDWEST CUSTOMERS WHO PREFER A FULL-SERVICE PROGRAM ARE:
- Focused on maximizing productivity and output with current staff

THIRD-PARTY STUDIES PROVE MIDWEST’S SUPERIORITY
TWO REAL-WORLD TESTS SHOW DRAMATIC DUST REDUCTION.
Midwest doesn’t just make claims; we prove everything we do. We also want our proof to come from independent sources whenever possible. A pair of studies conducted under real-world conditions, the first at iron and steel plants and the second on unpaved public roads, establish Midwest’s top-rated efficacy in the significant reduction of inhalable particulate matter.
>90% of PM10 and >75% of PM2.5 at iron/steel plants
A study by the U.S. EPA and the iron and steel industry proved that Midwest reduced fugitive particulate emissions by a considerable amount. The test took place on active industrial haul roads at two iron and steel plants, with results measuring control efficiencies 30 days after application.
Sustained dust control of 98% at 3 months, 95% at 6 months, 90% at 12 months
The Desert Research Institute and the California Air Resources Board conducted a year-long study proving that Midwest succeeded in unmatched, long-term, sustainable reductions in PM10 emissions. Rigorous field testing on active public, unpaved roadways and shoulders in Merced County, CA took place with real traffic and weather conditions.
A total of 7 different chemical dust suppressants were compared, with Midwest chosen as the clear winner:
- Dust emissions and silt load testing quantified that Midwest treatments were the most effective
- Near 100% elimination of dust after 3 months
- Enduring efficacy of 90% compared to control sections after a full year
- Significantly reduced surface deterioration (potholes, washboarding, and rutting)
- Prevented excessive deterioration following rain events
