Land Reclamation and Erosion Control

Topsoil is absolutely vital for most plants to thrive but to create this crucial base for growing you need both time and a complex mix of ingredients that have to interact with the subsoil.

Potential Problems
Unfortunately, major civil engineering schemes, landfill, and quarrying can totally destroy or remove essential topsoil, leaving behind barren and unsightly areas. Traditionally, these scars on the landscape are treated by spreading imported topsoil, followed by seeding or planting. However, topsoil is not always available, is expensive and heavy to transport and may not even be appropriate.

The Answer
Seanure Soilbuilder and the Terrabind range are ideal solutions to this problem. They are natural materials that substitute for, and promote the natural production of, topsoil thereby saving the need to import vast quantities of soil from elsewhere.

SEANURE SOILBUILDER
We can give you 100 reasons to use Seanure Soilbuilder:

  • It has bean created using the finest organic seaweed - accepted for centuries as one of our richest natural sources of manure
  • This powerful organic product supplies all the known trace elements
  • Seanure's unique process provides active constituents similar to those normally present in well-rotted farmyard manure, but, incredibly, weighs ONE HUNDRED TIMES LESS than farmyard manure

TERRABIND
Terrabind is a revolutionary organic soil binding liquid which originated in the wood pulp industry and developed so that, when applied to soil, migrates to the surface forming a micro thin film. This film has several benefits:

  • It binds the surface whilst still allowing gaseous exchange and reducing moisture loss
  • The hydrophobic components are mainly high molecular "weight" fatty esters that are dispersed in a fluid to form a concentrated product of 60% solids

How Do I Apply Terrabind?
Terrabind application rates are between 50 grams per square metre diluted with six parts water in dry conditions and four parts water in wet conditions. However, these general application rates can be misleading, as can general seeding and mulch specifications. Each site is different and each must have a tailor made specification to suit the soil conditions.
