Overview

About this product

Melbourne Water publishes specifications for the soils used on its assets and on works that drain to them: constructed wetlands, waterway corridors, retarding basins and water sensitive urban design. The drawings call up soil profiles by name (aquatic, sub, terrestrial and turf) and the superintendent signs off against the specification.

We supply all four profiles alongside our AS4419 and VR720 range, documentation attached to every order, so the paperwork is ready before the request comes. One supplier, one delivery program, every spec on the job covered.

Good to know

Common questions

Which Melbourne Water soil do I need?
The landscape or WSUD drawings name the profile: aquatic soil for planted zones within the waterline, sub soil beneath it, terrestrial soil for banks and surrounds, and turf soil where mown edges meet the asset. Supply what the spec names; if the drawings are ambiguous, resolve it with the superintendent before ordering.
Do you supply documentation with Melbourne Water soils?
Yes. Melbourne Water specification supply is documentation-driven, and we supply each profile with the paperwork to match, so conformance is ready when the superintendent asks.
Can you deliver to wetland and waterway sites with difficult access?
Tell us the access constraints when you order. Deliveries are sized to the site, and every load is GPS-tracked through NXT Control from the yard to your gate.
