Because our products have been developed to degrade in harmony with the natural growing process, most Greenfix materials:
- Leave no harmful pollutants in the soil, (heavy plastic netting can take hundreds of years to degrade and serve no short or mid-term benefit to erosion protection).
- Do not present a hazard to wildlife (wading birds get tangled in synthetic nets and can choke on plastic fibres).
- Use recycled and waste fibres which minimises impact on the environment. (The environmental cost of producing and using new plastic is incalculable).
Greenfix understands that a soft engineering approach is not always practical but by promoting a natural vegetative design solution, the impact of hard works that may be required is reduced, an increase in bio-diversity is created and an aesthetic and cost effective solution can be had.
Greenfix also recognises the importance of selecting the correct plants and grasses that will develop and benefit the specific site conditions.
We have had many years experience in materials application as well as seed and plant selection and often use local provenance seeds as part of our total design solution. Greenfix offers the assurances of proven high quality materials and design, with many years of practical hands-on knowledge and experience to make us Europes leading experts in erosion control and soil stabilisation solutions.
