HYDROSEEDING AND EROSION CONTROL
Hydromulch (Pty) Ltd was founded in 1969 when reclamation contracting was in its infancy. It has helped pioneer the landscape, soil reclamation and erosion control industry in Africa over the past 38 years.
Hydromulch operates from its farm premises in Bapsfontein and has reclamation, mainly hydroseeding - equipment in excess of R20-million. The hydroseeding equipment is maintained in peak condition. The company has completed contracts totaling over R300-million in the last thirty-eight years.
Hydromulch has the plant, equipment, resources and manpower to operate simultaneously on many sites both in Africa and internationally. It is capable of handling entire erosion control projects and all landscaping and environmental rehabilitation projects on many levels including: industrial or urban development projects, major mining rehabilitation projects, road and railway projects or other civil engineering projects within Africa, Indian Ocean Islands, Middle East, Caribbean, and the West Indies. We are geared up to interact with any environmental reclamation enquiry world wide and specialises in underdeveloped countries promoting sustainable development.
Hydromulch has developed its own industry specific equipment, products and methods of hydraulic seeding and vegetation restoration. The establishment of vegetation on sub-soils, often in hostile climatic conditions, has made it a world leader in its field.
Hydromulch has extensive experience in landscape rehabilitation projects mainly of mine closures and employed in a dual contracting and consulting capacity. Clients include some of the largest international mining corporations operating on the African continent and elsewhere.
Hydromulch is well known for its association with the CSIR, with whom it has instrumented sophisticated coastal dune reclamationa and rehabilitation management systems, jointly offering turnkey operations.
Hydromulch pioneered, among many other innovations, the method of reinstating “fynbos” or “macchia” vegetation along the Garden Route in South Africa. The excellent cover of re-established natural fynbos found on the National Roadwork system stretches from Port Elizabeth to Cape Town bears testimony to this achievement. Today this concept, in various modified forms, is widely used across Southern Africa.
Hydromulch works in close association with many renowned ecologists, consultants, environmental engineers and scientific organisations, designing reclamation and revegetation specifications, which have been applied successfully throughout Africa.
The company’s philosophy, whether in a consulting, contracting or a project management capacity, is to adhere to its clients’ requirements and contract programs with uncompromising rigour. Extremely high work standards are consistently maintained which enables us to meet even the most stringent specifications. All work undertaken by Hydromulch is guaranteed.
