Sustainable Growth Media Solutions for Successful Rehabilitation
Landloch has specialised skills and experience in assessing alternative growth media to reduce reliance on scarce topsoil resources while supporting successful rehabilitation outcomes.
We help clients identify, characterise and trial potential growth media to determine how available materials can be effectively used within cover systems and final landforms.
Suitable topsoil resources can be limited on large-scale rehabilitation projects. Landloch assesses alternative materials including waste rock, tailings, subsoils and other substrates to determine their suitability for use as growth media.

Landloch can combine our alternative growth media expertise with our rehabilitation field trial capabilities to test how proposed materials perform under site conditions.
Through this integrated approach, Landloch provides practical, defensible recommendations that support sustainable vegetation, meet land management objectives and optimise the use of available on-site materials.
Performance can be monitored against criteria including:
