Wildflower Turf
Lindum Wildflower Turf creates instant biodiverse habitats using native flowering perennials grown in a plastic-free, biodegradable felt base. Ideal for gardens, green roofs, and urban spaces, it supports pollinators like bees and butterflies while requiring minimal maintenance. This sustainable solution enhances ecological value and meets Biodiversity Net Gain requirements for development projects.
Grassfelt
Grassfelt is a reinforced turf product combining vegetation with a biodegradable mat to prevent erosion and stabilise slopes. Designed for flood defence systems and civil engineering projects, it provides immediate ground cover while establishing permanent vegetation. Its durability suits demanding environments like riverbanks and construction sites.
Green Roof Mats
Our green roof vegetation mats include Sedum and Wildflower varieties, offering lightweight, low-maintenance solutions for garden buildings and commercial structures. These mats improve insulation, reduce urban heat islands, and comply with sustainable drainage regulations. Pre-grown systems ensure instant coverage and long-term ecological benefits.
Sports Turf
Lindum's sports turf range includes LT1 Tournament Greens for golf and LT6 Sports Turf for athletic fields, all grown to exacting standards. These hardwearing grades ensure optimal playing conditions while maintaining aesthetic appeal. Used in venues like the Commonwealth Games, they combine durability with rapid root establishment.
Biodiversity Net Gain
We provide BNG-compliant solutions through wildflower habitats and green infrastructure that exceed the mandatory 10% biodiversity enhancement. Our products support developers in meeting Environment Act 2021 requirements by creating measurable ecological improvements in urban and rural developments.
