Eco Seeding
Eco Hydroseeding is the most uniform, fast, effective and economical means of applying seed and fertiliser on sloping areas prone to erosion or inaccessible to conventional equipment.
Our Eco Hydroseeding teams have years of experience in the
hydroseeding field, as well as the fibre & mulching industry , who are able to give you the best advice, service & reliable workmanship to get the best results for your investment.
Our Eco Hydroseeding components are mixed together in water with the resultant slurry then applied to the soil surface by a high pressure jet.
The mixture is kept in permanent suspension before application with pumping and agitation equipment which re-circulates the materials.
Erosion control is achieved by applying a mulch of chopped newspaper (and or sugarcane mulch for stronger adhesion to surfaces), organic fertiliser, a green dye for direction and tackifiers (a gummy substance to hold all the components together) as a separate operation over the hydroseeded area. The mulch creates a micro climate between the underlayer of recycled newspaper and the soil surface, creating ideal
germinating conditions by moderating soil surface temperature.
Advantages
Hydroseeding Applications
Who can benefit from the hydro seeding or erosion control process?
The list includes residential homeowner sites installing new lawns or renovations. Landscape contractors with commercial & residential turf or ground cover installations, landscape maintenance companies with turf renovations, landscape architect organisations with consulting recommendations. Golf courses with large fairway renovations and installations, municipalities with parks and special athletic turf requirements. Builder/developers with construction erosion control/slope stabilisation situations. Including straw blowing, stilt fencing, fiber mats, straw waddle sec. type installations.
No job too big only a minimum 100m2 fee!
What to expect? Before an area can be seeded a top soil of around 100mm needs to be laid and levelled even. When the area is ready the Hydroseeding can begin and will take on average no more than one to two hours to cover an area around 500 meters. If watered correctly you should see the grass start to grow within 10 – 14 days depending on the current climate and weather patterns.
After 4 – 6 weeks the grass will be starting to look thick and is now ready for mowing. With repeated watering and small trims you will notice the grass becoming stronger, bushier and healthier.
Eco Hydroseeding domestic, rural, commercial & industrial operations cover the entire South East Queensland areas-Sunshine Coast, Brisbane, Gold Coast & hinterlands. We do operate
outside these areas, Northern NSW and Regional Qld (north of Sunshine Coast) so

Advantages
- Seed is applied accurately and evenly
- Germination time reduced
- Insulates soil-moderates temperature
- Drastically reduces the speed of surface water passing over sloping areas during heavy rainfall
- Material remains intact until such time as the root system of vegetation has developed.
- Protects the soil surface from wind and water erosion, birds and other predators.
- healthier root structure and using less resources (i.e time & water) to get the best grassed area possible.
- Roadside Barriers
- Quarry Faces
- Dam embankments
- River banks
- General restoration following civil engineering works
