Solution:
SUREGROUND™ Reversible Soil Enhancement System
Soil Science were initially approached as speed and programme were key to the works. A robust solution was required due to wet weather and seasonal flooding in the region so Maintenance Free Surface Armouring was selected due to the commercial benefit it offered the three year scheme.
A fixed cost with no maintenance requirement was favourable as traditional stone solutions are subject to high costs associated with the topping up and tidying of stone.
Through rigorous testing standards and strict on site protocol Soil Science were able to successfully install their SUREGROUND™ Reversible Soil Enhancement System ahead of programme.
Testimonial:
“The TRUe Project had an option to either construct a traditional compound or use the SUREGROUND™ product.
Our compounds are now hardstanding, durable and maintenance free. These benefits outweighed a traditional build.
What really impressed me was how Soil Science mobilised under short notice and delivered within our timescales.”
