AquaRockBags were used on the #RiverDerwent following a flood event that caused a 20 metre section of flood wall to collapse. The AquaRockBags were then reused as part of the temporary works, providing a simple and cost-effective solution. Case study👇 salixrw.com/solution/aquar…

Concerned about #erosion? Turf Reinforcement Mats (TRM) provide significant erosion protection from the moment they are installed, whilst allowing vegetation to establish. Find out more about the VmaxC350 TRM: lnkd.in/e4YAyuAq #erosioncontrol #erosion #assetprotection

Difficult access? Salix has a suite of specialist plant to help with construction in particularly challenging locations. Working on a similar project? Get in touch today info@salixrw.com #drainage #mine #SuDS #construction #excavator #erosioncontrol #Menzi #RheidolMine

A big thanks to the sponsors for our rugby tour to France. Your support has helped enormously with the cost of the tour and kit @darren_smefp @SalixBio @ZetaAlarmSys @JS_Products @RCSTeamwear 🙏🏉

Salix has a suite of long reach excavators, allowing us to work from bank top and minimise disturbance within the channel. Working on a river or wetland project? Get in touch info@Salixrw.com #habitat #restoration #erosion

Salix installed AquaRockBags as an alternative to rock armour in Carmarthen on the River Towy. salixrw.com/solution/river…

We're carrying out valuable #Reedbed habitat maintenance in West Wales with our new amphibious excavator and trusty #Truxor

We're currently preparing a delivery of rock mattresses to assist with an #erosion control project. Rock mattresses come pre-filled and provide instant erosion protection from the moment that are installed. Find more about their benefits here: 👉 salixrw.com/product/rock-m…

Do you know the plant species? 🌿 We have been preparing pre-established coir pallets at our wetland nursery. The pallets in the photo will be ready for projects mid-summer 2023, once the plants are mature. Ideal for instant habitat. #watervole #habitat #GCN #restoration

Can you see the #rockmattress? Salix's rock mattresses provide sensitive scour protection near assets such as bridges. 👍 pre-filled = quick to install 👍 can be installed in-situ without dewatering 👍 small stone = greater abundance and diversity of invertebrates

Salix de-engineered a gabion retaining wall on a river, where rock mattresses and a Vmax TRM were installed instead. Our solution required just 4% Co2e compared with the gabion construction! Bioengineering provides multiple environmental and erosion control benefits 🌳

Over 35% of wetlands have been lost since 1970's, yet wetlands sequester significantly more carbon than terrestrial ecosystems. 1.5 megatons of Co2e could be captured and stored in plans by the UK government for 22ha of saltmarsh restoration. wwt.org.uk/uploads/docume…

🌼 Plants, plants and more plants 🌼 We grow millions of native plants every year for a variety of habitats. Don't let to top growth fool you, the root mass is a better indicator of maturity. salixrw.com/product-catego… #habitat #plants #restoration

The #Terralock system provides multiple benefits between habitat, erosion protection and protection from shallow slips. Check out this install in Manchester. The system simply requires a surface layer of materials, making it extremely quick to install too! #Terralock #Vmax

@ypp_peat Thanks for sharing - great to see how quickly peatland environments can be restored using simple (but effective) techniques. Let us know if you require any additional coir rolls for similar projects.

I’m still always surprised by how quickly #Peatlands can recover if we give them the chance. Look how much cottongrass is coming back now we’ve slowed the flow across the top of the catchment.

#MayfieldPark begins to take shape, as the FIRST GREEN appears 💚 Contractor @PP_OConnor has reduced the lawn walls to river level & #restoration specialist @SalixBio is cleaning it to remove any rubbish & silt. Rock rolls, coir pallets & native plant species will now be laid

Salix installed a 3ha wetland system at Twycross Zoo in 2008. This photo was taken 13 years since construction. salixrw.com/solution/twycr…

Perfect weather for #hydroseeding at Perry Barr & Witton ☀️. Ready for installation of @SalixBio turf mats next week! @JacksonCivils

Exciting news. Salix are part of a pilot project to set up a commercial #seagrass nursery. We are working with multiple partners including @SwanseaUni, @NaturalEngland, @AnglianWater & @AffinityWater #Seagrass Seeds of Recovery ow.ly/a78V50EF4BT
