Our Solutions > Reedbed & Wetlands

We specialise in integrated constructed wetland and habitat creation schemes, within the context of storm water and wastewater management. The basis of the SUDS approach is the use of water management technologies such as grass swales, constructed wetlands and infiltration basins within a treatment circuit to achieve the water flow and quality targets.

We work with natural processes and materials to create robust, ecologically stable systems that do not require high levels of maintenance.
