“Inert soil to create an urban park”, an article by Franck Boittiaux of Mat Environnement

At the heart of the action, on the Moissy-Cramayel site in Seine-et-Marne (77), Laurent Mogno, President of ECT, met Franck Boittiaux from Mat Environnement (Construction Cayola group).

  • earthworks using inert soil
  • shaping the mounds of the urban park
  • creating routes and paths
  • topsoil for green areas
  • plantings: orchards, arboretum, planted hedges,
