Landloch provides solutions to environmental problems to a wide range of industry sectors and environmental settings. Our aim is to provide scientifically sound solutions that can be practically implemented.
​
Our team of soil and environmental scientists, engineers and technical staff are uniquely skilled in assessing soil, water, land, and vegetation issues across landscapes in Australia and internationally. We have decades of experience in providing solutions to our clients in mining, construction, coal seam gas, agriculture, forestry and rangelands, water pipelines and roads.

Landloch apply leading-practice land management, rehabilitation, and landform design techniques. These include soil and land capability mapping, soil and mine waste characterisation, erosion testing, erosion modelling, landform design, landform evolution modelling, and geomorphic landform design. We are also skilled in water-solute balance modelling to assist in managing interactions between climate, soils, and vegetation. This guides our recommendations on the most suitable land management solutions on a “site by site” basis.

Our techniques are supported by a range of specialised equipment, including erosion testing laboratories in Australia and southern Africa, and mobile testing equipment that can be deployed to any location in Australia, Africa, North America, and South America.
Why Choose Us ... 

Grounded in Science

Landloch takes a different approach to the preparation of reports and modelling. The Landloch team understand that reports and designs must not only be grounded in sound, time-tested scientific principles, but they must also be fundamentally useful to the end user. The team works closely with you to ensure your stakeholders understand what recommendations are being made, why they are being made, and how to implement them.

Erosionally Stable Landform Designs

When it comes to land and soil rehabilitation, erosion control, mine rehabilitation and closure, the problem with many scientific reports, designs and modelling is that there is too frequently a disconnect between the design and execution in the real world. When projects fail, the costs to companies sky-rocket in dollar terms, and are incalculable in environmental terms.

You can expect to achieve ...

  • Dramatic savings in project costs
  • Solutions to highly challenging problems
  • Consistently better project outcomes 
  • No re-works, and
  • Streamlined regulatory compliance.

Unique follow-through

Landloch consultants work with people at every level of an organisation, from the people in the field to board members and management in a creative and flexible way to assist that organisation to achieve the results they need. We regularly achieve dramatic project cost savings for our clients for one distinct reason ... we don't just give you a plan. We help make sure the plan is implemented.

"Rob and the Landloch team's work opened up a great opportunity to negotiate hard with the Department of Minerals and Petroleum to assist Minara Resources with our tenement bond requirements ... to the point we got our initial bond money returned back on some rehabilitation in four years as it was deemed ‘sustainable’. This is unheard of in the mining industry" - Tim Stevens (Murrin Murrin Environmental Manager) Read the Full Testimonial
