Job Creation and Employment Opportunities

 

 

Soil & Dust Solutions has developed a job creation model based on the repairing of potholes, and road shoulders.  This model allows for the transfer of skills through a basic training program, which will allow small groups to form a viable business based on pothole repair .

In the township and rural areas this will provide a viable solution to the deteriorating roads, as well as job creation. 

Our method utilizes the same concepts and methodology of road building using stabilized layers but bringing the process down to a manual level. The performance level and fast curing time of our soil stabilizer, together with the fact that the end result does not require bitumen, heated vehicles, and is safe and easy to apply makes this a perfect solution. 

With suitable soil, or aggregate  we are also able to advise as to the recommended mix design and equipment for brick manufacturing.

Contact us for our training model and a step by step presentation.
