Our Agreenco team of expert environmental engineers and scientists has become the trademark of the Agreenco way – scientific, realistic and effective.  We have developed a unique risk-based approach to deal with environmental remediation and land use challenges to provide our customers with best cost-of-ownership solutions.  Our multidisciplinary foundation and exposure to various commodities and biomes offer us the expertise to interconnect data offered by the on-site resource base in order to engineer feasible and site-specific outcomes for our customers.  These include land rehabilitation designs, mine closure plans, constructed wetlands, passive care water attenuation systems, air quality risk frameworks with respect to dust mitigation, landscape and ecosystem function designs, land use and agricultural potential assessments, environmental performance appraisals, biodiversity improvement plans, rehabilitation quality assessments and improved landscape design.  Our edge remains custom-designed solutions considering our customer’s site- specific needs and environmental performance commitments

At Agreenco we understand the dust mechanics of haul roads and the associated risks of these for mining operations. This knowledge allows us to offer the lowest cost-of-ownership dust control applications in the market.. We have been on the forefront of product development of low cost, environmentally friendly and extremely effective soil stabilisers.  We also fully understand the environmental management requirements pertaining to air quality and can therefore propose integrated management solutions that will not only reduce reputational risk but also save substantially on cost. To this end, we provide detailed on-site application solutions and can provide real-time monitoring data through our DustTrack units which saves our customers millions.  As our treated areas are non-slippery and we are able to reduce truck following distance, our customers are able to increase productivity of their operations by improved safety performance.

Agreenco unlocks the substantial opportunity that mine-owned agricultural land offers to restore viable agribusiness and secondary down-streaming of potential. Agreenco is the catalyst to restore previously productive use of land through our specialist land use and agri-engineering approach whereby we either transform mine-owned land to economic use, or rehabilitate land through agricultural applications. Through this approach, we deliver a telling environmental return on environmental expenditure to our customers. Our applications include cropping, fodder, animal husbandry, bioenergy options, game and conservation opportunities as well as the secondary beneficiation scope that exists in order to accelerate the business case of the options we provide.  Our agribusiness offering also aligns with our customers’ social agenda in order to create employment, contribute to the socio-economic improvement of the areas in which they operate and reinforce their reputation as responsible corporate citizens. These initiatives aid the alleviation of food security brought about by the reduction in agricultural land and are also beneficial to the integrity of the environment at large.

At Agreenco we strive to ensure that nature and industrial activities co-exist through our signature environmental designs and track record of green, expert implementation.  We manage the project and install infrastructure, such as slurry and water pipelines, launder and dam liners, dust suppression irrigation cannon systems, interception boreholes and pumping systems, containment bund walls for spill protection, erosion control measures such as gabions and custom applications as well as environmentally friendly haul roads. Our offering is differentiated through our understanding of the holistic impact that industrial operations might have and through our environmentally considerate approach we have managed to be pro-active in the day to day protection of natural assets. In this way we not only assist our customers with compliance, but reduce the cost of environmental incidents as well.

Mining areas are renowned for their high biodiversity status and it is often difficult to manage this precious attribute of the landscape. At Agreenco, we have a passion to assist our customers not only to protect biodiversity, but also to optimise this asset during the life of a mine.  A thorough biodiversity assessment usually informs our proposed actions.  We also utilise biodiversity as a rehabilitation agent in order to fast track the reinstatement of ecosystem services on rehabilitated land.  Our projects include large scale afforestation and selective revegetation processes.  We also eradicate alien and invasive plants which may threaten the integrity of ecosystems around mines and water courses.  An added benefit of our revegetation approach is to create carbon sinks in order to reduce the carbon footprint of our customers and also to sequester carbon back into the soil.
