Application

Suitable for use as subsoil in general landscape applications, including trees, shrubs, and amenity grass. Additionally, the sample was evaluated for compliance with BS 8601 – Specification for Subsoil, including potential contaminants.

Description

An alkaline, non-saline, non-calcareous, stone-free sand with a single grain structure. The organic matter content was low, which is typical for subsoil. No contaminants were found at levels exceeding guideline values.

Based on these findings, the material is considered suitable for use as subsoil in landscape applications where a free-draining subsoil is required, or where the risk of drought is low.
