Commercial & Infrastructure Soil Stabilization

Commercial & Industrial Buildings | Warehouses | Parking lots | Roads | Walkways

Save time and money while reducing CO2 emissions with our economical soil treatment solution.

Proven Soil Stabilization Technology

Douglas foundations injects an advanced AGSS-ICS ionic stabilizer designed for swelling clay soils that changes the nature of the soil itself to permanently solve the problem of swelling and contracting soils by as much as 88% to protect the structures above.

Douglas Foundation Solutions can apply AGSS-ICS ionic stabilizer in the manner that best suits your project. Soil stabilization can be applied either as a spray and physical mixing of the solution into the clay soil, or as a series of carefully placed injections in the soil underneath where the structure will be built.

Proven Results

AGSS-ICS soil stabilization has proven effective with long-lasting benefits in project after project, study after study.

Dramatic reduction in swell

Increased strength

Reduced moisture migration

Cost-effective | Permanent | Eco-friendly

Benefits of AGSS-ICS:

Up to 5 times less expensive than export/import of select fill
Up to 3 times more cost-effective per cubic yard than lime treatment
No need to spend the time and money to haul off hundreds or thousands of loads of soil and replace with purchased fill soil
AGSS-ICS treated clays are irreversible and will not solution with time. In comparison, lime treatment can solution with time and require retreatment.
Safe for the environment
Low CO2 footprint when compared with alternatives

Environmentally Friendly

Environmentally inert
No airborne toxic exposure issues for personnel
No dust pollution issues for public or personnel
No heavy metals or toxins added to the soil
No risk of toxins leaching into the water supply
Use of on-site soils eliminates transport of fills, waste and additives, greatly reducing CO2 emissions
No landfill space consumed for waste soils
Increased pavement life and reduced maintenance
Allows for use of “waste” soils for fill
