Improved performance, strength, and longevity
Extend the life of your unpaved and paved roads with one of our proprietary stabilization solutions.
It’s all in the chemistry. Midwest does what other companies don’t and innovates in ways they can’t. We harness the power of polymer chemistry and nanotechnology based on 50 years of study, experimentation, and field validation.
Ordinary methods of soil stabilization for roads are rigid, brittle, and carbon-intensive. Ours create a dynamic, interlocking matrix that binds road materials. You get a resilient surface with flexible strength and freeze-thaw durability.
Whether you are preserving gravel roads, upgrading to pavement, reclaiming failing asphalt, or building new roads, Midwest solutions reduce material usage, minimize long-term repair and reconstruction costs, and ensure environmental compliance while maximizing long-term performance and return on investment.
Custom chemistry adapts to your challenges
Midwest doesn’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions for the soil stabilization of roads.
We developed chemistries to give you a wide range of stabilization innovations customized to your requirements that go beyond traditional solutions. That’s because we take real-world conditions into account. The problem? Roads break down when the ground beneath them can’t keep up. The solution? Midwest’s proven chemistry perfected by decades of field experience. Why? Tailored methods outperform ordinary methods by strengthening the base and building a more durable surface.
Others only address a single scenario, while Midwest has a comprehensive range of engineered solutions for unpaved and paved roads to preserve as-constructed qualities on unpaved roads and enhance structural performance in paved applications that are designed to last even under heavy loads and harsh conditions.
Our Solutions:
Unpaved Road Stabilization (NaturalPave®)
Surface deterioration, such as potholes, rutting, washboarding, and excessive dust leads to unsafe conditions, frequent grading, and high maintenance costs. Stabilize and strengthen the road surface by treating in-place materials for a smooth, durable surface that significantly reduces maintenance, cuts dust, improves drivability, and extends the life of the road cost-effectively.
Base and Subbase Stabilization
Gravel or unpaved roads prepared for chipseal or asphalt without proper base support fail early under traffic and weather stress. Strengthen the foundation by treating the existing material or improving new construction layers. A more resilient structure reduces the need for imported aggregate, speeds up construction, and improves long-term performance.
Subgrade Stabilization
Roads built over weak or moisture-sensitive soils often face long-term structural issues like cracking, rutting, and settlement. Treat the subgrade at the earliest stage of construction to improve load-bearing capacity for a more stable foundation. This lowers construction and repair costs with a longer-lasting paved surface.
Full-Depth Reclamation (FDR)
Aging pavements that crack or fail need costly reconstruction. Recycle existing pavement and base in place to build a stronger, more durable foundation. Eliminating material removal and replacement reduces trucking and disposal costs. This stable roadbed handles modern traffic loads with improved efficiency.
Dust Control/Fines-Preservation Solutions
Unpaved roads lose surface material to dust and traffic damage and require constant grading and repair. Lock fines and aggregate into the road to preserve its structure and reduce dust for a cleaner, safer surface with fewer maintenance demands. The longer-lasting road holds its shape and function.

All Fields Required
SCIENCE-BACKED AND FIELD-PROVEN PERFORMANCE
How do our engineered polymers work?
Ultra-long molecular chains deliver superior soil stabilization for unpaved roads and paved road foundations. Designed as a high-performance alternative to ordinary chemical stabilizers such as cement or lime, they provide long-term structural integrity while minimizing environmental impact.
- Create a dense, interlocking matrix of physical bonds between soil particles
- Both durable and ductile for tensile resilience and compressive strength
- Treated layer flexes under dynamic loading without structural failure
- Stabilized system resists rutting, cracking, and deformation
- Performs under high-frequency, heavy-load traffic and extreme environmental conditions
- Balances stiffness with flexibility for long-term pavement protection
- Reduces lifecycle cost in unpaved road applications
We Don't Claim – We Prove
Midwest's verified results are supported by independent testing.
Don’t take our word for it. See how Midwest’s polymers compare to other stabilizers in a three-part study conducted by the Norwegian University of Science and Technology. The analysis demonstrated the following key results:
Delivered substantial improvement in the resilient modulus of the aggregate.
Midwest soil stabilization for unpaved roads significantly improved mechanical performance before and after ten (10) freeze-thaw cycles, confirming their superior all-weather durability.
Base course thickness was effectively reduced by 50% compared to untreated granular base, lowering aggregate, transportation, and construction costs.
Demonstrated notable reductions in permanent deformation compared to untreated granular bases.
Eco-Pave E (ACE-A) and Soil Sement EF (ACE-B) showed strong resistance to moisture-induced stripping.
