Advanced Environmental Services provides polymer spraying services for effective erosion control, specifically slope protection. Sprayed erosion control compounds, collectively referred to as polymers, are rapidly becoming the go-to solution for slope protection on civil and major infrastructure worksites. Our spray teams are located around South East Queensland and the Melbourne region, allowing us to protect a wide range of areas with exposed ground easily and quickly to keep your site compliant with local government anmd state regulations.
Polymer Spraying is the process of applying an acrylic bonding agent (a polymer) to a soil surface at risk of erosion by water or wind. The application of the correct compound for a surface is determined by it's gradient, soil type and degree of exposure to nature's forces. The selected polymer compound binds loose particles of the surface into a crust or skin to minimise migration of fines into nearby waterbodies or dust being picked up in the wind.
The polymer compound is first dissolved in water and then spray-applied to the surface or slope that needs to be protected. Specialised pumping units either trailer or truck mounted are deployed with the capacity to spray the compound from onboard storage tanks. After lightly penetrating the soil, within a few hours the product binds soil particles together to form a stabilised layer or crust on the top of the soil. This crust protects the surface from damage.
Using polymers as a way to protect slopes from erosion is only a temporary solution that is typically implemented during the work phase. If your project requires a more permanent solution, then you should consider GCCMs or Cellular Confinement as these methods are more structurally sound surface covers. Although polymer spraying is only a temporary solution, it still has a range of benefits for your worksite.
The Polymers we use are water repellant, non toxic and non-flammable for safe use in environmentally sensitive areas which may be subject to erosion or weathering.
Vehicle or trailer mounted systems enable rapid deployment of Polymer spraying. We are able to treat large surface areas within relativley short periods of time without terrain limitations. Setting times for polymer sprays can vary depending on temperature and humidity but a usually set within a few hours.
Generally applied to large surface areas, the low cost per unit area makes this product highly cost effective. Moreover, widely accepted as the industry standard for effective erosion control, polymer spraying is a highly recommended solution favoured by local government authorities.
Whether you are looking for polymer spraying to combat erosion on your project site or you need another environmental protection installation service, Advanced Environmental Services can assist you. We specialise in erosion control, sediment control, slope protection, fauna safeguards, waterway and vegetation protection.
