TerraZyme Road Drying Process

TerraZyme is an excellent drying agent that works in all soils with 15% or more clay content. For work areas and roads that are prone to flooding, TerraZyme's multi-enzyme formulation dries and stabilizes soil to get your project areas suitable for use. 

Suggested Areas for Treatment

  • Public and private roadways
  • Construction projects
  • Parking lots, hardstands, work areas
  • Mining sites, oil fields, and timber haul roads

1. Prepare Soil Bed

Prepare soil bed to desired depth of treatment using disks, tines and rakes (generally between 6"-12").

2. Create drainage channels

TrenchWheels can be used to cut drainage channels for standing water. Diagonal channels are used to drain low-lying areas. Prepare area and allow water to drain before applying TerraZyme.
