LL-TEQ™ · Solutions
LL-TEQ Solutions / Gravel Roads
Stop rebuying the same gravel every year: a bound surface that sheds water and resists washboard and potholes.
The problem
Gravel comes back every year — and so does its cost
The endless cycle
Regravelling, grading, calcium chloride, then it all starts over: the gravel-road budget is a recurring expense, not an investment.
Washboard and holes
An unbound surface breaks down under traffic: washboard, potholes, aggregate lost to the ditches with every rain.
Dust on top
Every vehicle lifts the fine binder off your surface — quite literally your road blowing away.
The LL-TEQ solution
LL30 at light loading in the running surface
The LL30 binder is mixed at light loading into the existing gravel surface, then compacted: the fines are bound, the surface sheds water instead of absorbing it, and the aggregate stops migrating. Optional LL25 surface application for season-long dust control.
- LL-TEQ: loading and depth design, SOPs, technical presence, coordination
- The contractor or the client: execution of the works with their own equipment
- Bearing capacity is designed per project, with your engineer of record
- The math is total cost of ownership: treat once instead of regravelling every year

The price
How the price is set
Every solution is quoted per m². The price follows from the loading design: the treatment depth and the product charge per m², set by our engineering design for your project. No published figure replaces a design — every quote is generated per project.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What does this change compared to calcium chloride?
Chloride draws in moisture to hold the fines — it dilutes, needs reapplying, and corrodes equipment. LL30 mechanically binds the surface: the effect doesn't depend on moisture and doesn't wash away with the rain.
Does the road stay a gravel road?
Yes — same appearance, same light grading maintenance as needed, but a cohesive surface that keeps its profile and its aggregate.
How long before retreating?
The design targets seasons, not weeks; actual frequency depends on traffic and the loading selected, and is included in the end-of-site recommendation.
