Brompton Gas Works Hydroseeding Remediation

About the Brompton Gas Works hydroseeding project

The Brompton Gasworks Remediation Project is a major environmental initiative transforming a historically contaminated industrial site in SA into a safe, revitalised space for future community development. Once home to gas production facilities, the site required extensive remediation to make it suitable for residential and public use.

As the head contractor, EnviroPacific engaged ecoDynamics’ SA Landscaping team to deliver the revegetation component of this ambitious urban renewal effort. Our team was proud to contribute to a project focused on environmental stewardship and sustainable redevelopment.

  • Scope of work 

    • 46,247 m² hydroseeding with a carefully selected dryland seed mix suited to local conditions.
    • Coordinate with environmental consultants and project managers to ensure strict compliance with remediation and revegetation standards.
    • Implement erosion control measures to stabilise soil and support healthy plant establishment.

    This was a large-scale hydroseeding project that was delivered efficiently and safely, laying the groundwork for a greener, thriving landscape.

Key challenges

  • Soil remediation compliance – ensuring all landscaping activities met stringent environmental standards for the remediated site.
  • Site accessibility and safety – navigating logistical and safety challenges on a complex remediation site, with close coordination among contractors.
  • Drought-resilient planting – selecting and applying a seed mix that ensures long-term sustainability with minimal irrigation, tailored to local ecosystems.

Outcomes and impact

Our revegetation work played a vital role in:

  • Stabilising the site and reducing dust and erosion during and after construction.
  • Creating an initial vegetation layer to support future landscaping and public space development.
  • Helping transform a former industrial site into a vibrant, healthy environment ready for community use.

This project demonstrates our SA Landscaping team’s expertise in delivering high-quality, environmentally sensitive landscaping solutions on challenging remediation sites.
