Specialist Equipment for Habitat Creation and Land Restoration
Successful habitat restoration frequently begins with getting the ground into the right condition.
Construction, previous land use and earth movement can leave soil compacted, uneven or contaminated with stones and surface debris. Before grass, wildflowers or other vegetation can establish successfully, these areas often require further preparation.
AMTEC Hire supplies specialist machinery that can assist throughout this process.
Cultivation equipment can be used to loosen and prepare disturbed ground, creating improved conditions for root development and establishment. Where stones and debris are present, stone pickers can mechanically remove material from the surface and upper soil profile, helping create a cleaner seedbed.
Once the ground has been prepared, seeders and rollers can assist with establishing grass, wildflower mixtures and other vegetation.
This type of equipment can be particularly useful for habitat creation schemes, biodiversity projects, environmental improvement works and the restoration of land following construction or infrastructure projects.
Because environmental projects can vary considerably in size and duration, owning every specialist machine required is rarely practical. Hiring allows contractors, landowners and environmental organisations to access equipment for a particular stage of a project and return it when the work is complete.
Talk to AMTEC Hire about your project and we can help identify machinery suited to the ground conditions and work you need to carry out.
