To create a green layer of vegetation, large amounts of material per hectare are required. The use of natural materials is a burden on the environment.
The material we use to build up a green surface consists of residual products. Recycling of these products is both good for the environment and contributes to a sustainable society.
We use nutrient biosolids as a final cover material, which both improves the plant's growth ability and helps reduce the risk of erosion in steeper areas.
The biosolids is mixed with other materials to ensure that it contains the correct levels of different substances and does not exceed levels and guidelines specified by the Environmental Protection Agency.
We conduct careful analyses of all the material we mix and make sure that the plant layer material we spread has the properties it needs and stays within the specified limits.
To ensure that the material we use for final coverings has the best properties and is within the guidelines, we mix biosolids with other materials. We ask for analyses of all the materials we receive and then put the values into our mixing files. We then see what materials and in what quantities we should mix in order to get an optimal end product. The materials we use to mix with sludge include fibre biosolids and fibre wool from the forest industry, lime from the paper industry and plaster from the construction industry.
Biototal ensures that permits are available from the respective regulatory authorities for transport, intermediate storage and for the use of biosolids and other materials.
In order to further reduce the potential impact on the environment, we also follow internal regulations for handling biosolids and other products in connection with receiving and laying out.
