The recent tightening of legislation across Australia regarding air quality caused by mining activity provides further validation to its investment creating world-leading products and refining techniques to suppress dust &#8211; meeting some of the most stringent government legislation and controls on the planet.<\/p>\n<p>Leading Australian resource sector and civil services firm Global Road Technology (GRT) is experiencing a surge in international enquiries from the mining, construction and agricultural sectors due to its leadership in the battle against air pollution caused by exposure to coal, silica, and other harmful dust.<\/p>\n<p>This leadership is due to a decade-long investment in research and development that has resulted in unique, Australian made products, services, equipment and processes that provide clients practical strategies and solutions to reduce the exposure of workers and communities to the impact of potentially deadly dust pollution caused by mining, land development and agricultural activity. This investment into creating products that meet the strictest government guidelines meant the company was ready over the last 12 months to meet industry demand &#8211; locally and globally &#8211; when governments across Australia strengthened legislation to put pressure on firms to have comprehensive <a href=\"https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/\/portfolio\/dust-control-solutions\/\">dust control management strategies<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This has required a greater focus on compliance from the mining, industrial, construction and agricultural sectors to ensure that dust management strategies are a core focus to reduce the impact that air pollution has on both workers and communities.<\/p>\n<p>GRT General Manager, Daniel Grundy believes that the surge in growth the firm is experiencing is the fruit of a decade-long investment the company has made in solutions and services specifically designed to stop dust and erosion hazards at the source from the mining, construction and agricultural sectors and meet the highest safety standards outlined by governing bodies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur firm&#8217;s products, applications and services are nearly all developed within Australia for the purpose of adhering to Australian government guidelines and on <a href=\"https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/\/portfolio\/dust-suppression-solutions\/\">dust suppressio<\/a>n and are developed to the highest standards for the purpose of aiding our clients in compliance to ensure they avoid fines or other forms of legal penalties,\u201d said Mr Grundy.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-78338 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/global-road-technology-battle-against-air-pollution-in-mining.jpg\" alt=\"global-road-technology-battle-against-air-pollution-in-mining\" width=\"1348\" height=\"899\" srcset=\"https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/global-road-technology-battle-against-air-pollution-in-mining.jpg 1348w, https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/global-road-technology-battle-against-air-pollution-in-mining-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/global-road-technology-battle-against-air-pollution-in-mining-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/global-road-technology-battle-against-air-pollution-in-mining-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/global-road-technology-battle-against-air-pollution-in-mining-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1348px) 100vw, 1348px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe made a decision as a business some time ago that wanted to be seen as a global leader in our field and this has meant that our focus when developing a new product or providing a service follows the principles outlined particularly well by the Queensland government when they updated their legislation in 2018. This means that our approach is based around controlling\/eliminating dust by engineering controls at the point of generation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>GRT, is a world-leader in the development of infrastructure and process solutions for the mining, civil and agricultural sectors that minimise safety issues, the environmental impact of road building and can be applied across various soil types \u2013 making it extremely adaptable &#8211; a major reason for its usage within the Australian mining sector.<\/p>\n<p>It has developed a range of innovative chemical additives \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/\/grt-haul-loc\/\">GRT: Haul-Loc<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/\/grt-activate\/\">GRT: Activate<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/\/grt-ore-loc\/\">GRT: Ore-Loc<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/\/grt-wet-loc\/\">GRT: Wet-Loc<\/a> designed specifically for managing and containing dust for the purpose of protecting workers on mining sites and nearby residents and landholders from airborne dust pollution and disease. For countries with large resource-based economies like Australia, these solutions are in high-demand it allows clients to operate more efficiently whilst protecting staff, communities and the local environment.<\/p>\n<p>For Daniel Grundy it outlines that the firm\u2019s core focus on becoming an industry leader in supporting the mining sector is based around adhering to one core focus &#8211; reducing the risk of workers being exposed to hazardous dust particles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur products and services are designed for the purpose of reducing the impact of airborne dust on people and operations,\u201d Mr Grundy said.<\/p>\n<p>The Queensland state governments legislation in relation to hazard reduction lines up with the way we develop our own solutions \u2013 what is the most effective way to eliminate this hazard. For example, you can\u2019t change the nature of coal, but changing the nature of the water sprayed for dust suppression is something GRT can do \u2013 capturing dust, eliminates the hazard, and also has the added benefit of saving water in many of the often dry parts of not only Australia but worldwide where much of our mining activity occurs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Your feedback is important to us.
