Bioengineering has become the favoured method of achieving high standards of effective erosion control, water quality and habitat improvement where a sustainable environmental approach is important to the specific project in question.

The restoration and enhancement of the UK’s canal network, its waterways and coastlines can be achieved in a more sensitive fashion using a combination of natural and living materials alongside more accepted ‘hard’ methods. In many cases ‘hard’ solutions can be completely replaced by a bioengineered ‘soft’ methods and where this is not possible bioengineering techniques can be used to ‘green-up’ and soften the ‘hard’ engineered option.

Sometimes technically advanced geo-technical solutions must also be incorporated into the appropriate bioengineered methodology to provide the optimum system to create, maintain and sustain the solution.  Where this is the case A.G.A. have the experience to provide integrated AGA Geo-technical and AGA Coir Fibre Systems to fulfil situation appropriate bioengineered solutions.

AGA hold in stock for supply only and supply and install contracts a range of Geo-technical materials.

A.G.A Group offers a complete range of bioengineering products and solutions, these include:-

• Pre-planted Coir fibre rolls,
• Pre-planted Coir fibre pallets,
• Eco-islands,
• Willow, chestnut and hazel faggots
• A.G.A rock rolls.

Design and installation can be carried out by our specialist teams from our Special Projects Division from concept to completion.
