Biomatrix - Model 2D -Floating Ecosystem Modules
2D modules are designed to be planted with pre-planted coir mats typically containing a mix of native plant species. Pre-planted coir mats can be rolled out over the floating structure to create an easy to install pre-rooted planting area. 2D modules are best suited to a wild planting aesthetic.
- Planting = Coir Mats
- Bolting = Double SS 316
- Strength = 3,000kg
- INCREASED WATERFRONT VALUE
The floating islands transform hard-edged waterbodies into living water parks, increasing public amenity and recreation on appeal, raising the value and quality of surrounding properties.
- A SAFE HAVEN FOR BIRDS
Specially tailored platforms provide a sheltered refuge for birds safe from disturbance. A mix of habitat types can be created for specific species.
- RIVER-READY STRENGTH
Biomatrix builds the strongest floating ecosystems available with a pull strength of over 2,500 kg. This allows our clients to install projects in challenging and dynamic water condi ons.
- DESIGN FLEXIBILITY
Five interlocking components can be configured to form hundreds of Floating Island and Floating Riverbank shapes and are connected with tough stainless steel quick connect flanges.
- SUSTAINABILITY
Materials are carefully selected for recycled content and recylability and only non-toxic materials are used. Once grown, the system is typically 60% living biomass and 30% marine engineered materials.
- PRODUCT / INVESTMENT LONGEVITY
Biomatrix floating ecosystems are the longest lasting available using heavy duty marine engineering materials, including 316 Stainless Steel and HDPE with a typical lifetime of over 20 years.
- STRONGER FISH STOCKS
A subsurface forest of roots provides shelter for fish and ideal feeding grounds, improving fish stocks.
- IMPROVED WATER QUALITY
A micro-wilderness of submerged roots creates an ideal habitat for millions of microorganisms, which use algae, carbon and excess nutrients in the water as a food source, purifying the water.
