Villages & Communities
Treatments selected for inhabited-area requirements: schools, clinics, markets and village centers.
Midwest Industrial Supply, Inc. technology · Canton, Ohio · Since 1975
Midwest programs can treat roads through inhabited areas near mining or industrial sites. Agent selection accounts for the environment and neighboring crops.
A typical plan covers the village's core routes (school, market, well) and includes 12-month performance monitoring.
An Engineered Method, Calibrated for African Terrain
Each engagement begins with soil characterization: gradation, fines content, plasticity and moisture. Traffic, climate and logistical requirements determine the formulation. Mix designs are tested in the laboratory of Midwest Industrial Supply, Inc.
Our engineers work with HSE, production and maintenance teams. Objectives are measurable: PM10 reduction, watering cycle control, transport continuity and operating costs.
The 30-day trial provides performance data from your site. Bearing-capacity measurements, traffic counts and air sampling document treatment before large-scale deployment.
From Audit to Measured Performance
1. Site Diagnostic
Soil sampling, traffic counts, climate and logistics assessment for your site.
2. Formulation
Selection and dosage of the Midwest solution for the objective: soil stabilization, fines preservation or dust control.
3. Application
Controlled spreading, in-situ mixing or topical spray depending on the solution. Schedule kept.
4. Monitoring & Warranty
30-day on-site trial, dust and bearing-capacity measurements, then a multi-year performance contract.

Dust Palliative & Fines Preservation
Application program, operational benefits and impact on road maintenance.
Fines Preservation
Why losing fines destroys a gravel road, and how to stop it.
A Method Designed for Infrastructure Programs
- Midwest Industrial Supply soil science — founded in 1975, first serving mines — applied to African laterites and soils.
- A supervised 30-day trial on your own site, co-developed with your teams before any large-scale rollout.
- Non-toxic, biodegradable products, safe for inhabited areas and neighboring crops.
- Performance-based contracts: we commit to measurable KPIs, not liters delivered.
