Green Retaining Walls

  • What are Green Retaining Walls?

    Green Retaining Walls are an engineered, vegetated retaining wall solution. These resilient green structures have the retaining power of ‘hard materials’ such as concrete or gabions yet are an organic solution proven to be great alternative in many landscapes. We create attractive and nature-beneficial vegetated walls that can control erosion, maximise usable land and be a beautiful feature in its own right. 

  • How can they be used?

    A Green Retaining Wall is a natural and robust solution for a variety of landscaping applications.

    Uses include: a retaining slope or wall, erosion control, river or stream banks, pond edging, tiering in steeper landscaping, coastal land reclaim, stabilisation and protection, site levelling and land optimisation.

  • What are the benefits?

    • Highly cost-effective in comparison to concrete, stone or metal alternative.

    • Easy to maintain and highly resilient engineered retaining structures.

    • A sustainable system made from 100% recycled material and filled with organic product.

    • A long-term, green solution with a 75 year warranty and 120 year design life.

    • Creation of further habitat for nature within your building/stabilisation work.
