Vegetation & landscaping
Vegetation and landscaping play a key role in stabilising soil, improving air quality, and enhancing the visual appeal of both natural and built environments.
Vegetation and landscaping not only enhance the visual appeal of both natural and built environments but also play a key role in stabilising soil, improving air quality, and fostering biodiversity.
Modern landscaping methods, like hydroseeding, are designed to offer more than just aesthetic value by promoting sustainability and soil health. Hydroseeding uses a mixture of seed, mulch, water, and fertiliser to quickly establish vegetation, prevent erosion, and support long-term ecological stability. This approach can be particularly beneficial in areas that are difficult to access, providing an efficient and cost-effective solution.
Incorporating techniques like the Rootlok vegetated wall system into landscaping projects further enhances the stability and sustainability of the land.
Rootlok’s integration of vegetation in engineered systems helps manage erosion, stabilise soil, and prevent surface water runoff, creating an environment that balances functionality with ecological integrity. These landscaping solutions contribute to building resilient and thriving ecosystems.
Areas:
- Hydroseeding
- Soft landscaping
- Rootlok

Benefits
Rapid establishment
Hydroseeding accelerates germination and growth, achieving quicker results than traditional seeding.
Cost effective materials
Hydroseeding is a more affordable option for establishing a landscape.
Erosion control
This method effectively prevents soil erosion, particularly in sloped or high-rainfall areas.

Water efficiency
It retains moisture, minimising water usage while supporting healthy vegetation growth.

Custom solutions
Tailored seed mixes cater to specific environments, boosting biodiversity and landscape resilience.
Hydroseeding
Hydroseeding is an effective way of revegetating open spaces that are particularly large or difficult to access.
Hydroseeding is the intelligent solution to this problem. By revegetating in this way, you save time, money and manpower.
In a hydroseeding machine, the seed is combined with water and wood fibre or paper, along with natural tackifiers and fertilisers. The hydroseeding machine has a mechanical agitator which then breaks up the material before it’s recirculated through the machine’s tank to create a slurry. The slurry is then hydraulically applied to the required area from either a turret gun or hose attached to the hydroseeding machine.
Hydroseeding is the most effective way to vegetate bare and barren areas of land while improving soil quality and encouraging flora and fauna to thrive. It is simply the best way to seed areas when other methods just aren’t safe or viable.

Rootlok
Rootlok offers a soft green solution, which makes it ideal for use in landscaping and gardening projects to provide that immediate aesthetic finish.
It provides landscape architects, consultants, garden designers, contractors and homeowners with a solution for designing and installing sustainable structures. Retaining walls and structures can be built with an aesthetically pleasing finish, unlike other hard engineered systems available such as concrete and gabions.
The simplicity of Rootlok means it can be used easily by anyone. Homeowners looking to add to their gardens along with landscapers designing a green retaining wall solution. The flexibility of the system allows structures to be built in any shape and angle requiring the use of only small hand tools. It’s modular design also allows the system to easily integrate and sustain a variety of grasses, plants and small shrubs.
The Rootlok System brings numerous benefits to the local eco-system, delivering major biodiversity gains in both urban and rural applications.

Vegetation options
One of the major benefits of the Rootlok System is its ability to integrate vegetation within the structure. Not only does this deliver on Rootlok’s green credentials but ensures longevity of its 120 year design life. We recommend several methods to vegetate the Rootlok structure: pre-seeding the Rootlok bags, hydro-seeding and inserting live plants.
