Global Road Technology provides the solution to a worldwide need for better and safer roads.
GRT products are revolutionary soil stabilization and dust control technology that has been used for years in the mining, commercial, industrial, farming industries as well as helping developing communities and other commercial applications worldwide.
The GRT method uses the latest dust control and soil stabilization technology to create instant infrastructure - saving time, money and resources - compared to the construction of conventional roads.
The application of GRT products is a relatively easy and rapid process. It is applied similar to other dust suppressants, but with our method, the road can be used almost immediately.
Let us work with you to apply our products to your existing road or gravel surfaces and see the results for yourself.
We guarantee the GRT method will stand the test of time. Roads that were once graded regularly will now only require occasional and minimal maintenance, using the technological advantages of the GRT method.
Global Road Technology is an international company with a wealth of expertise in the creation and maintenance of better urban, rural and industrial roads.
GRT technology solves soil stabilisation and dust control problems, and other operating challenges, with the optimal combination of proven products and total turn-key solutions.
The company works on all types of roads from major highways and freeways to haulage, industrial and rural roads, plus tarmacs, hardstand areas and water repellent pavements. We provide overall soil and ground stabilisation to all surfaces. Our technology can be applied into clay, silt, sand and gravel materials.
MISSION STATEMENT “We provide the simple solution to a global problem of creating better and safer roads for people, industry and communities everywhere.”

How Global Road Technology Products Control Dust and Protect the Environment
1. How GRT Products Control Dust and Protect the Environment
A growing concern for construction, mining, agricultural and other types of large sites
are the dangers caused by fugitive dust. The use of proper dust control measures from
companies such as Global Road Technology can improve the overall health and well
being of those working in exposed areas. Proper soil stabilization can lead to a better,
more productive work environment with fewer dangers to both employees and
equipment.
What is Fugitive Dust?
Fugitive dust is actually a new term for an old problem. Put simply, fugitive dust is a
non-point source of air pollution. In other words, small airborne particles that emanate
from a larger area such as a gravel quarry, grain mill and the like. Fugitive dust can be
difficult to control since the sources may be very large in nature such as construction
sites, croplands and unpaved roads to name a few examples.
While it is true that fugitive dust occurs naturally in small amounts, such as from wind
erosion, larger amounts can present significant health problems for those who are
exposed. In fact, thanks to improved agricultural methods and the paving of rural roads,
naturally occurring fugitive dust has decreased in the past few decades.
But for smaller sites such as constructions zones, grain mills and the like, the problems
of fugitive dust have been magnified. Over the years, research has indicated the
dangerous effects of this type of dust with its health complications and damage to
equipment and the environment.
Why is Fugitive Dust a Serious Problem?
The inhalation of fugitive dust can create a number of health issues for those exposed
over a period of time. People who have respiratory issues such as asthma or bronchitis
are vulnerable as well as the inherent danger of low visibility when fugitive dust is
present in large amounts. Dust particles can foul up mechanical and electrical
equipment, including computers.
For businesses who are concerned that their employees may run the risk of having
serious health issues along with mechanical, electrical and safety problems from being
exposed to fugitive dust, Global Road Technology is a company that offers products
which can address these needs. Global Road Technology provides the products and
expertise to help companies address the issues of dust control and soil stabilization.
How Can GRT Products Combat Fugitive Dust & Protect the Environment?
2. GRT has developed a range of innovative products thatuses the latest in dust and soil
stabilization technology. The GRT Series of products are designed to create a hard,
water impermeable, semi-flexible surface that effectively prevents dust from forming. In
addition, products such as the GRT9000 for example also reduce the following;
•
Reduced environmental impact
•
Reduced dust and erosion levels, in some cases up to 98%
•
Reduced water and natural resources
•
Reduced truck and equipment maintenance
•
Reduced fuel usage
•
Reduced import of material
•
Reduced landowner and environmental protection agency complaints
•
Reduce wet weather stand--down
•
Reduce rehabilitation cost over the life of the project
GRT products are designed to be used on silt, clay, sand and gravel materials. These
products are non-toxic and environmentally friendly, lasting for an extended time to
keep fugitive dust in check. In addition, the application of GRT products issimple,
inexpensive and quite effective. Because they are non-toxic, they can be transported
easily to any location where they are needed. Global Road Technologies is here to help
your government or company employ proper dust control and soil stabilization to create
a better, healthier work environment.
