The company utilized an innovative solution based on research, bioengineering and environmental technologies.

1. FortGrass is
a natural solution that:
1. uses seeds of herbaceous perennial deep
rooting plants that are capable of growing in
almost every lithotype and climate
2. controls EROSION even on most barren
ground types
3. reduces water infiltration into the ground
thanks to the thick leaves blanket and favours
water removal from upper soil layers thanks
to evapotranspiration, with positive effects on
some geomechanical parameters of soil:
saturation, pore pressure, cohesion, shear
strength, etc.
4. able to replace a range of materials used in
traditional interventions to control erosion
(geocells, geonets, biomats, mulch, plastic
materials, topsoil, etc.) or able to be
combined with these, ensuring technical and
environmental advantages, and cost savings
5. environmentally restores slopes, assisting
biodiversity and accelerating ecological
succession
6. subtracts up to 400% more CO2 than
traditional plants
7. requires no maintenance (watering, fertilising,
mowing, etc.)
