Are you passionate about sustainable river restoration and soil erosion control? So are we! Salix leads the market when it comes to innovative and sustainable river and wetland management and provides spillway and shoreline protection, inland dredging, and wetland habitat creation. We are not just consultants or contractors either: we are designers, constructors, manufacturers, distributors, and growers.
We replace ‘hard’ engineering, such as concrete barriers to train river flow, with bioengineering solutions that work with natural systems. We manufacture and supply a range of bioengineering products and are the largest grower of native wetland plants in the UK. If you believe, like us, that the best approach to managing the natural environment is by complementing it, increasing biodiversity, and improving water quality, then please get in touch.
