Landscaping Hydroseeding Erosion Control Products Slope Vegetation System
Research & Development
Joint Research with the Campus Development Office,
the Chinese University of Hong Kong
With the combination of hydromulching, erosion control and horticultural technologies, the principle of Toyo-Mulching System (TMS) is to establish a self-equilibrium vegetation ecology, which will provide continuously for the necessary nutrient and water moisture to the vegetation. TMS can be widely applied on any non-soil surface of bedrock, shotcrete, no-fine concrete or chunam.
Nisshoku of Japan invented this hydromulching technology 20 years ago. It has been applied commonly in Japan and Taiwan for over 20 years. It provides not only erosion control on slope surface but also visual improvement. Since 1998, we have applied TMS widely in landscaping projects where appropriate. So far, the result of TMS is very stable.
For further improvement, Toyo Greenland Co., Ltd. is enthusiastic to carry out the research on TMS with the Chinese University of Hong Kong. The objective is to evaluate the result of past TMS projects, which cover 12 slopes in 9 site locations. They are as follows:
1) The Chinese University of Hong Kong (3 slopes)
2) Tai Tam Country Park (2 slopes)
3) Tung Tau Wan Road, Stanley Bay
4) Nam Long Shan Road, Wong Chuk Hang
7) Princess Margaret Hospital Lai Kong Street, Kwai Chung
8) Tai Lam Country Park, Pat Heung
9) Tai Hang Road, Causeway Bay
Experts in the Chinese University of Hong Kong and Engineers of our company have carried out meeting and site inspection regularly from April 2002 to August 2003.
In these 16 months, we have carefully observed the performance of TMS and collected the data required. The outcome of TMS is evaluated with the data collected and by observation with the professionals.
