ECT presents its activity to stakeholders in the landscape sector
ECT is at Paysalia to present its activities as a developer and re-user of excavated soil. And also, to present its new product, Urbafertil, a growing medium and alternative to topsoil.
Several workshops were held on our stand with our partners Les Alchimistes and Astredhor:
- « The challenges of food waste recovery, synergies and waste recovery » by Camille Lepoutre, Les Alchimistes
- The « Tree in the City » project by Camille Soulard, Astredhor
- Feedback on the Urbafertil experiments by Benjamin Tilliet, ECT
The circular economy of excavated soil for ‘greener cities”
The reuse of inert soil is an opportunity for the development of natural, agricultural or recreational areas. In addition, the development of a fertile substrate suitable for planting in an urban environment has been the subject of several years of research and development. ECT has therefore created Urbafertil, its brand of substrate. Its composition is adapted to every project while meeting the NF U44-551 standard (culture media).
The fertile substrate is a solution to reconstitute the soil and its agroecological qualities.
The fertile substrate is produced at its point of use, reducing the carbon footprint of its use. Urbafertil is an eco-responsible product. It is derived from the recycling of green waste and building materials. The creation of this technosol makes it possible to vary the qualities of the soil according to the expected services, vegetation, biodiversity, drainage and bearing capacity. The manufacturing process is adjusted to meet the client’s specifications. Objective: To produce the right growing medium
