It is designed specifically for the often dry and dusty conditions of the mining and resource sectors and by using this product the resource sector can lessen the amount of water required for continuous <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/\/applications\/dust-suppression-solutions\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">dust suppression<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by at least 65 per cent.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GRT Haul-Loc is specifically designed to negate the impact of untreated dust from unsealed haul roads, hardstands, cleared sites, and large soil\/mineral stockpiles that can have a considerable impact on sta\ufb00, the environment, and the quality of life for local communities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-77998 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/2017-06-05-16.52.33.jpg\" alt=\"GRT Haul Loc Dust Suppression\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/2017-06-05-16.52.33.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/2017-06-05-16.52.33-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/2017-06-05-16.52.33-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/2017-06-05-16.52.33-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This technology is designed by GRT to resolve the issues caused by traditional methods of dust suppression in that\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">traditional methods using solely water to capture particulates are quite ineffective due to the respective properties of the two particles \u2013 resulting in them repelling each other like two positive ends of a magnet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It has come to the market at a time when the legislative environment across the country is combining with community pressure, placing airborne dust pollution and dust-related lung disease firmly on the agenda of major mining companies as pressure grows for them to showcase how they are proactively reducing its onsite spread.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to GRT General Manager Daniel Grundy, the combination of a changing legislative environment, community pressure and client requirements are driving the company\u2019s investment in new products with much higher efficacy than traditional methods.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOur investment in research and development has positioned GRT to be at the forefront in terms of technology and industry leadership in this space,\u201d Mr Grundy said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAn example of our investment in technology is how we have designed products like GRT: Haul-Loc to plug into <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/globalroadtechnology.com\/\/smart-dosing-units\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">autonomous mining systems<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and deliver effective dust control as well as provide critical data currently missing onsite.
