Roof Garden

About Us

Yorkshire Water

Green Tech Ltd have been operating for the past 15 years within the landscaping, forestry and construction industry. Our movement into topsoil production was driven through a working partnership between us and Yorkshire water. Over the past 5 years a sustainable, synthetic topsoil product has been developed called Green-Tree Topsoil.

The history of Green-Tree Topsoil

The aim was to develop a consistent and sustainable product the landscape market would except and use instead of a natural soil. We needed to create a rooting medium that fulfilled the role of landscaping topsoil that was suitable for the sustainable growth and establishment of trees, shrubs and grass. The product needed to promote healthy root growth for anchorage, be suitably aerated and drainable and provide a sufficient source of available water and plant nutrient.

If Green-Tree was to be a success we needed to achieve a number of factors.

We now have many years of production under our belt and believe we have achieved what we set out to do. In one year over 92% of all material sold was delivered to repeat customers.

By combining science and technology with conventional techniques we have developed topsoil that meets the ever-increasing demands of today's landscape industry.

We currently convert 33% of all Yorkshire Water's composted sludge, which is available to Green-Tree soils. We aim to convert 100% of all Yorkshire Water's available composted sludge to Green-Tree soils by the end of 2009. Our Approach

We don't rely on guesswork when developing and recommending our products. The Green-Tree name is about sustainable product development and robust quality control.

We won't recommend a product until we're satisfied that we understand the market needs. We have a testing program in place to ensure your last load delivered is the same as the first. This way we ensure that the topsoil's we provide exceed your expectations.

Because at the end of the day our business isn't about simply supplying topsoil; it's about developing long-term relationships with customers who appreciate the link between a technically based supplier of topsoil and the ultimate success of the project.
