Our reed bed solutions are a sustainable way of treating stormwater before it returns to the environment. With regulators, water companies, businesses, and householders all looking to reduce river spills, there’s never been a better time to invest in reed beds.
Climate change affects rainfall patterns, sometimes resulting in more frequent and intense downpours. Storm overflows are designed to relieve overwhelmed sewerage systems. However, they typically result in wastewater bypassing the treatment works and spilling into rivers and seas, potentially harming the environment.
To overcome this, we design, install, and maintain reed bed systems, which are proven, nature-based solutions for preventing untreated stormwater from flowing into rivers and polluting them.
Our reed beds are designed to intercept the normal route for stormwater, and instead, they capture and treat stormwater by trapping debris, filtering pollutants, and breaking down harmful substances. By slowing the flow of water with a reed bed, you also reduce flooding risks and improve water quality, which helps to protect ecosystems.
