Both PolyCom and DustChek have been designed with similar goals of reducing expenses, preserving resources, and offering unobtrusive solutions for workers on the ground, but they are two entirely different products.
PolyCom is a surface stabilising agent, applied during construction to greatly reduce wear, cost, and maintenance of a road or other surface.
DustChek is a water-soluble additive that is regularly applied to surfaces to improve the top layer, mitigating dust and other hazards generated through regular wear.
Yes. PolyCom-stabilised pavements deliver comparable results to traditional stabilising methods with regard to strength but also remain flexible and resistant to shrinkage, cracking, and becoming brittle.

After spreading and addition of water as required, PolyCom works by binding the particles when compacted, thereby increasing water resistance and improving and preserving the dry strength of the construction material. PolyCom has been designed so that it is transported and distributed uniformly throughout the material by water. Cross-blending or mixing the PolyCom-treated material completes the distribution process. PolyCom also acts as a lubricant within the material, aiding workability, and resulting in a denser, stronger pavement.
No, the addition of PolyCom is not a factor in project duration, requiring only a few minutes to spread. After spreading, the road or surface can be constructed as normal.
