CPD Presentation
Title: Bioengineering Solutions for Soil ErosionControl and Habitat Creation
Company Overview:Salix are industry leaders in bioengineering solutions. We providesustainable, ecologically sound answers to the challenges found in soiland riverbank erosion, inland dredging, water based civil engineering,wetlands and habitat creation projects across the UK.Our expertise has involved us in landmark projects such as the 2012Olympic Park wetlands; replacing or reducing hard engineering withinthe Environment, Rail, Civil & Utilities sectors plus habitat mitigation forprotected species. Our sensitive approach to all our work takes intoconsideration the Water Framework Directive that calls for improvedbiodiversity within UK watercourses.
Key Learnings:1) Improve knowledge of bioengineering products in order to provide correct specifications and correct choice of solutions.2) Improve understanding of how bioengineering solutions are used to create habitat, prevent scour and soil erosion on slopes, spillways, riverbanks, lakes and drainage channels.3) Improve understanding of how bioengineering solutions perform in comparison to hard revetment.Contact: If you or your colleagues are interested in arranging a presentation please call Richard Edwards on 07795 657399 or e mail [email protected]
