Planting quarry

This includes layout to your specifications and planting into diverse site conditions such as beach dunes, wetlands, clay soils, laterite and mine overburden. Planting techniques include ripping, augering, dishing, rabbit guarding, tree bagging, fertilising, soil amendments, mulching and watering as required.
We also provide specialist planting services (using rope and harness) to undertake mine site rehabilitation on slopes. We can supply locally occurring plant species and deliver plants to site in covered vehicles.

Weed eradication

We can identify and focus on target species. Eradication techniques include hand removal, slashing, bagging, herbicide programmes and mulching. We can design weed management plans for specific sites and prioritise weed control.

Erosion

Soil erosion and sand stabilisation control using various techniques including matting, brushing and mulching.

Project monitoring

Periodic project monitoring and reporting to keep you informed of project outcomes. We can also implement ongoing maintenance activities to meet project goals.
