Soil Blend Design for Soil Manufacturers
We work with you to design your perfect soil formulation.
-
STEP 1 - Select Your Waste Product
Good soil media will comprise mineral and organic components at the right ratio .
Organics: Fine mulch, coarse mulch, sawdust, compost, bagasse, coir, coffee grounds.
Mineral: sand, soil, crushed sandstone, ash.
-
STEP 2 - Ingredient Characterisation
Each ingredient plays a unique role in the overall composition of the media blend. By analyzing the properties of individual ingredients, we can determine their exact proportion for blending and manufacturing.
-
STEP 3 - Soil Formulation
The outcome of the ingredient characterisation will inform the end use options whether the blend is for gardens, turf, bioretention basins or green roofs.
The Urban Soil Doctor will develop multiple formulations to determine the optimum blend to achieve the desired typology and compliance.
-
STEP 4 - Validation & Compliance
The Urban Soil Doctor will undertake final analysis to prove the formulation is compliant to Australian Standards (or the specification of your choice).
