The geological conditions of the excavating site are seldom ideal. Therefore, soil conditioning is a must in ensuring the productivity and safety of tunneling activity. Injection of soil conditioners onto the tunnel face significantly modifies the charecteristics of the ground and helps transform it to obtain an effective pressure control in EPB TBMs. As a result, excavation can continue in greater safety when various factors including cutterhead torque, thurst force, clogging, dust, tools abrasion and wear affecting the TBM are minimized and controlled. Our additives and polymers help stabilize ground conditions by offsetting high water content or pressure effects in sharply graded soils. Besides, these polymers are specially engineered to have a minimal impact on the environment while being safe for the foaming system.
