About
Hydromulch is the cost effective planting process that is an alternative to conventional sod that uses a slurry of seed and mulch. The slurry also includes seed, fertilizer, tackifying agents, Straw fiber mulch and water. The slurry is transported in a tank and sprayed over prepared ground.
Sustainability Outcomes
Our Hydromulch product is manufactured from recycled materials and requires less water to apply and includes Microbes which are designed to build soil health and soil carbon.

| Lan-3 (ISv1.2) | Envirostraw’s approach employs cutting-edge microbe technology to tackle contaminated soils through bio-remediation. By utilizing a comprehensive suite of detailed soil testing and analysis, Envirostraw identifies the contamination’s nature and extent, allowing for the crafting of specific amelioration and bio-remediation programs. The targeted use of microbes and biotic growth amendments not only helps in treating even the most intricate contamination problems but does so in an environmentally conscientious manner. This innovative and sustainable solution reflects Envirostraw’s commitment to environmental restoration and could greatly contribute to achieving points in Lan-3 (ISv1.2) |
| Wat-1 (ISv1.2) | EnviroStraw’s approach and technologies prioritize both monitoring and minimizing water use in infrastructure projects. Our specialized Hydromulch products enable up to a 50% reduction in water usage during application compared to conventional Hydromulch products. Further savings can be achieved through our dryland non-watering program. Our Biotic Growth amendment products help increase carbon sequestration (the soils water sponge), enhance the soils water storage capacity and plant root establishment, thus improving water use efficiency and further reducing site water usage across the infrastructure lifecycle. This approach may contribute to achieving points in Wat-1 (ISv1.2). |
| Ene-1 (ISv1.2) | Envirostraw,s approach and technologies are dedicated to reducing carbon emissions and energy use through innovative and multifaceted strategies. By minimizing truck movements on site, such as water carts and Hydromulch trucks, we significantly reduce diesel fuel consumption, thereby curbing emissions. The true innovation, however, lies in our Biotic Growth Amendments, specifically designed to enhance soil carbon sequestration and the biological capture of GHGs. Through the utilization of tailored microbe technologies, we promote the natural process of capturing and storing carbon within the soil. This increased soil carbon capacity not only aids in achieving carbon neutrality but also contributes to a broader strategy of energy conservation and environmental protection |

| Ene-3 (ISv2.1) | EnviroStraw’s approach is strategically aligned to offset residual carbon emissions through a holistic environmental approach. Utilizing Biotic Growth Amendment products, we actively promote carbon sequestration within the soil, turning it into a natural carbon sink. This enhanced ability to capture and store carbon offsets the carbon emissions generated during a projects construction and operational activities. Additionally, by focusing on the health of the soil and leveraging natural nutrient recycling. processes, we are able to reduce GHG emissions and make further strides towards achieving. net zero carbon. EnviroStraw’s commitment to environmental stewardship through its innovative Biogrowth technologies ensures that the entire lifecycle of a project is considered, contributing to the drive towards net zero carbon and aligning with the objectives of Ene-3 (ISv2.1). |

| Wat-1 (ISv2.1) | Envirostraw's Hydromulch products enhance soil health and carbon sequestration, leading to improved moisture retention and reduced irrigation needs. This integrated approach directly contributes to conserving water across the lifecycle of an infrastructure asset, aligning with the objectives of Wat-1 (ISv2.1). |
| Dis-1 (ISv1.2) | EnviroStraws Hydromulch products, with C-Factor ratings as low as 0.001, manage erosion and sediment impacts efficiently. Using 50% less water during application and incorporating a dryland non-watering program, they reduce water use and runoff. Our non-leaching, environmentally friendly fertilizer further diminishes nutrient load in waterways. These collective measures reflect a strong alignment with Dis-1 (ISv1.2), emphasizing responsible water quality management.
