High Permeability Bio Retention Soil (T)

SUITABLE FOR:
• Sustainable Urban Drainage Schemes (SuDS)
• Nature based SuDS Projects
• SuDS Bioretention Basins, Swales & Trenches
• Filter Media for Managing Surface Water
• Filter Media for Sustainable Urban Drainage Schemes (SuDS)

Our High Permeability Bioretention Soil (T) is specifically designed for nature-based SuDS Bio Retention projects, including basins, swales, and trenches that require a high permeability rate. This soil features a predominance of medium sand (0.25-0.50 mm) and a lower proportion of coarse sand (0.50-1.0 mm), ensuring fast drainage of 405mm/hr.

Achieving the desired high permeability means that organic matter and nitrogen levels are on the lower side. Depending on your project's requirements, you may want to consider appropriate amendments to enhance these factors.

Alternatively, explore our  Moderate Permeability Bio Retention Soil (S), which offers higher levels of organic matter and nutrients for projects that require them.
