Viridis offers a turnkey service, adapted to the specific characteristics of each degraded site. The company relies on a multidisciplinary team to rehabilitate mining sites, former landfill sites, as well as quarries or sand pits once operations have been completed.
The use of FRM helps significantly reduce the cost of the work compared to traditional methods, promoting the rapid and efficient establishment of sustainable plant cover. Beyond valorizing sites and improving landscapes, the establishment of permanent vegetation plays a key role in controlling erosion.
Rehabilitation operations aim to quickly restore ecosystems, and sometimes make it possible to control pollution in the form of dust, odours and noise.
The Viridis teams offer effective solutions adapted to your needs, enabling you to reduce the costs of disposing of your A-B soils, to comply with the RPRT analysis requirements, and to choose a disposal option that has a positive environmental impact.
The Viridis technical service is simple, efficient and ecological: your project is quickly approved (nature of the contamination, characterization of the soils, estimated quantities), a scale is available on site for weighing trucks, and Viridis authorization enables you to receive soils that have been characterized in situ or that have been treated in an authorized site.
Viridis uses A-B soils to manufacture a substrate favorable to the development of vegetation on the Black Lake asbestos mine quarries : together, we are helping to restore that degraded site and improve the environment!

In forest environments, recycling involves spreading fertilizing residual material (FRM) such as paper or municipal biosolids on existing or even new tree plantations. FRM application in forests greatly improves the establishment and growth of trees.
Since 2009, Viridis has recycled more than 150,000 tonnes of FRM, as part of the planting of hybrid poplars in forests in collaboration with paper industries. Viridis applies its expertise in this area to provide professional services to its clients in the procurement, management, and technical and environmental monitoring of the use of FRM in forest environments.
This work requires authorization from the ministère de l’Environnement et de la Lutte contre les changements climatiques, de la Faune et des Parcs (MELCCFP). According to the MELCCFP, recycling organic residual materials as fertilizers is the best way, from an environmental point of view, to dispose of those materials. It reduces the emission of greenhouse gases (GHGs) compared to landfilling, while promoting the growth of trees that fix GHGs: a two-fold advantage. By complying with regulatory requirements and the rules of the art in agronomy, recycling MRF in a forest environment is a highly economical form of fertilization and a global solution for the management of organic matter, while posing a negligible risk for the environment. This approach contributes to the achievement of the MELCCFP's 2020 goal of 0% of organic matter going to landfill sites.
