Dura-Crust vs Magnesium Chloride

Non-corrosive, eliminates corrosive maintenance issues
Works well in all environments after binding with soil
By binding with soil and other surface materials (caliche, decomposed granite), Dura-Crust will not separate and run off during heavy rains
Seals surface, reducing seepage and potential damage to sub-base
Engineered co-polymer, designed for water dilution and application. The need for re-applications reduced with each subsequent application (binds to itself)
Builds upon itself with each additional application, reducing amount of continual watering
Non-toxic, safe for plants, wildlife and Title 22 approved for freshwater and aquatic life
Provides excellent soil binding for low water crossings and slope stabilization
May be remediated in place
More cost effective

Corrosive, leads to additional maintenance on vehicles
Not as effective for dust control in lower humidity
When wet, creates a slippery, unsafe surface
Breaks down sub-base, requiring maintenance more often
Requires continual undiluted application
Does not bind with soil and other materials
Over time chlorides create toxic surface that is environmentally unsafe
Water soluble creating runoff that affects vegetation and animal life
Dissolves in water
Soil runoff from treated surfaces must be remediated
Less cost effective
