Monsoon Concerns Lead Landfill to Product Invention

Setting up a new customer in Asia we put our Posi-Shell Applicator through it's paces and it performed well, proving again "if your dozer can go there so can our Applicator."

Our experience in Asia brought to light the need to create a version of Posi-Shell that would be resistant to the monsoon rains experienced in that region of the world.
With Dave Hansen heading the charge, and the team in Apalachin supporting and verifying his efforts, we are pleased to announce that the initial field trials of this product were successful. The site showed very little washing, even with a monsoon rain falling just two hours after application.

Posi-Shell Gets Noticed

Professionals in the solid waste management industry know how valuable Posi-Shell is for their uses. Now other industries are discovering the unique benefits of controlling erosion with Posi-Shell. A recent visit to an erosion control trade show caused a buzz about the product.

Posi-Shell® Cover provides a hard-shell coating to effectively protect against wind and water erosion. Typical applications are on intermediate and pre-closure areas of landfills and other large sloping soil surfaces.

Municipalities and corporate clients have come to Landfill Service Corp., and borrowed the technology for other purposes, including managing sloping surfaces, lining ditches and controlling other areas where erosion is a concern.

One of our clients, a New Jersey-based chemical company, has found success and convenience with the process.

"We have been using Posi-Shell to prevent soil erosion on our side slopes. Because of weather conditions, we can't always complete the work on the slopes, so using Posi-Shell prevents soil loss."

You can view Posi-Shell in action the Landfill Service Corp. website, or request a demonstration on your site to see in person how Posi-Shell works.
