Hydromulching

Dust suppression, erosion control and sand stabilisation for civil and mining sites

Vertrac provides hydromulching solutions designed to control dust, stabilise surfaces, and prevent sand movement across construction, mining, and infrastructure projects.

Our high-output application creates an immediate protective layer that binds the surface, reducing environmental impact and improving site safety and compliance.

What is Hydro Mulching?

Hydro mulching is the application of a slurry made up of:

  • Mulch (organic fibre)

  • Water

  • Soil binders / tackifiers

This mixture is sprayed evenly across the ground to form a protective bonded layer that:

  • Reduces airborne dust

  • Prevents wind erosion

  • Stabilises loose soils and sand

  • Minimises surface runoff and sediment loss

Unlike traditional methods, hydromulching provides fast, uniform coverage and immediate results.

Our Capabilities

Applications

  • Dust suppression on construction and mine sites

  • Sand stabilisation (stockpiles, laydown areas, exposed surfaces)

  • Batters and embankments

  • Roadworks and infrastructure corridors

  • Temporary surface stabilisation

Equipment & Delivery

  • High-capacity hydro mulching units

  • Long-reach hose systems for difficult access

  • Consistent slurry mixing and application
