Embankments and earth bodies

Vegetation establishment and erosion protection for constructed slopes, fill bodies and landforms after earthworks.

An approach matched to your site

After road works, water retention, excavation or site grading, exposed slopes and fill bodies remain vulnerable to rain wash and drying. Hydroseeding, supported where needed by an erosion mat or protective cover, stabilises the surface while vegetation establishes.

We assess slope angle, soil type, moisture and access. Seed mixture, mulch and binder are matched to erosion pressure and the intended vegetation; on steeper slopes an erosion mat or additional cover layer can be applied.

What goes into the plan?

A steep or unstable slope requires structural assessment first; vegetation protects the surface and does not replace slope stabilisation. Work on an earth body under construction is phased in consultation with the site operator.

Where is it applied?

Road embankments, cuttings and fill slopes
Water retention areas, swales and stream banks
Soil stockpiles and temporary fill
Noise berms, dams and levee bodies

One project, a coordinated approach

We discuss location, soil, surface area and timing. Besides the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany, we also take on projects elsewhere in Europe. Techniques, responsibilities and aftercare are agreed in advance.
