Guardian
Guardian is the portable Soil Stabilizer System (SSS) of the future, manufactured by Rantec Corporation. This proprietary blend of natural polysaccharides allows it to be a stand-alone soil stabilizer or used to tackify an infinite combination of native fiber sources. Some of Guardian's key features include continuous coverage, high water holding capacity and environmental compatibility. Starch, plantago, and polyacrylamide systems will all re-dissolve once they are wetted again and will lose their bond. Guardian can be repeatedly soaked and still resist re-wetting.
