ENRICHING THE SOIL NATURALLY SINCE 1992
St. Louis Composting is an authorized dealer of Organic-Lock Stabilized Aggregate. As an environmentally friendly solution for pathways that allows water to pass through it, Organic-Lock offers a number of valuable benefits which might be ideal for your next commercial project. Explore the benefits below and feel free to reach out to us with any questions you might have!
A revolutionary high-performance organic binder for water permeable, environmentally-friendly, decomposed granite and other aggregate surfaces.
Organic-Lock™ is the product of extensive scientific research. The result: an environmentally-friendly binder that resists erosion while simultaneously remaining water permeable and maintaining strength and stability.
BENEFITS
ENVIRONMENTALLY
FRIENDLY
Our environmentally friendly
Organic-Lock™ binder is the
strongest organic binder on the market today. Organic-Lock™ is made from 100% naturally occurring materials.
WATER
PERMEABLE
On contact with water,
Organic-Lock™ creates a gel that binds the aggregate particles together and allows excess water to pass directly through to the groundwater table.
WHEELCHAIR
ACCESSIBLE
When installed to specifications, Organic-Lock™ blended aggregates qualify them as wheelchair accessible and Organic-Lock™ meets the maneuverability performance
requirements of ASTM F 1951-09b.
RESISTS EROSION
When activated by water,
Organic-Lock™ forms an adhesive gel which bonds aggregate particles together while still allowing water to permeate through to the ground below. Organic-Lock™ is particularly effective on sloped surfaces where pathways and other surfaces are most prone to washouts and rutting due to fast moving water.
SELF-HEALING
Organic-Lock™ blended aggregate surfaces remain completely flexible and able to withstand thermal
movement or settlement of the sub base materials. In conditions where cracking does occur, rain water
reactivates the Organic-Lock™ allowing the surface to self-heal and naturally fill any cracks making it a very low maintenance pathway
stabilizer option.
SIMPLE MAINTENANCE
Maintenance is easy. The material can be re-worked by adding water first (which reactivates the Organic-Lock™ gel allowing for physical manipulation), followed by
scarification and re- compaction.
