Dust is a major health issue, also harming the environment and tourism. Treating a symptom like dust with ordinary methods, such as water and short-lived surface treatments, is only a temporary BAND-AID. Instead, Midwest deals with the root cause of the surfaced instability. The result: the most advanced Semi-Permanent gravel runway technology in the world.
The first and only Semi-Permanent gravel runway from the leading innovators in soil stabilization and dust control.
MIDWEST’S SEMI-PERMANENT TECHNOLOGY
Now, a gravel runway can perform like a paved surface.

A
EK35 Topical Application
The EK35 topical application is applied directly to the runway surface to create an erosion resistant surface which minimizes dust emissions and potential Foreign Object Debris (FOD).
B
Well Compacted Aggregate Layer
The well compacted aggregate layer should consist of proper gradation aggregate and be compacted to a minimum of 95% of its maximum dry density prior to applying the EK35 topical application.
C
In-Situ Subgrade
The subgrade is the compacted native soil in which the base course is laid upon and acts as the foundation for the runway.

4″-6″ EK35 Stabilized Well Compacted Aggregate Surface Course
EK35 is blended into the upper 4″-6″ of the surface course to increase longevity, strength, stiffness and uniformity of runway surface.
