Mulching

Environment

Mulching offers an environmentally-friendly approach to land clearing that helps to manage invasive species, prevent soil erosion, retain moisture, enhance soil quality, and avoid the need for burning or hauling. Our expert operatives are able to selectively mulch to remove undesired vegetation while retaining valuable species.

We undertake effective mulching in the following situations:  

Invasive species control

Our environmentally compliant mulching services are highly effective for the control of invasive and non-native species. Using TMC Cancela mulching heads on low ground pressure excavators, we selectively manage vegetation while minimising soil disturbance, reducing the risk of regrowth and spread. This controlled approach supports long-term ecological restoration and helps native habitats to re-establish.

Utility corridor management

We provide efficient, compliant mulching solutions for utility corridors, maintaining access while protecting surrounding environments. Our low ground pressure excavators and purpose-built TMC Cancela heads allow for precise vegetation management beneath power lines, pipelines, and telecom infrastructure, reducing ground impact and ensuring safe, repeatable clearance in line with regulatory requirements.

Highways & transport infrastructure

Our mulching services support highways and transport networks by delivering safe, controlled vegetation management with minimal disruption. Operating low ground pressure excavators fitted with TMC Cancela mulching heads, we reduce soil compaction and erosion while improving visibility, access, and asset protection, all in accordance with environmental and highway authority standards.

Conservation & habitat management

For conservation-led projects, our mulching approach enables sensitive habitat management without unnecessary ground disturbance. The combination of specialist excavators and TMC Cancela mulching heads allows for selective clearance that protects soils, supports biodiversity, and aligns with conservation objectives, making it ideal for wetlands, woodlands, and protected sites.
