• Hydroseeding
Hydroseeding
or Hydraulic Seeding is a mechanised process that
can be used for establishing vegetation over large areas. The hydroseeding
process involves the use of highly specialised hydraulic seeding
equipment with a built-in agitation system and a specialised centrifugal
pump for handling varying viscous slurry formulations. Seeds, fertilisers,
organics, ameliorants, additives and mulch are mixed together with
water and hydraulically pumped over selected areas. The speed of
this application enables an exceptionally high coverage rate to
take place.
