Fytogreens floating wetlands are floating modules planted with wetland species to add beauty, interest, offer significant water quality management benefits/capacity and provide a diverse habitat to all kinds of water bodies.Â
Developed by horticulturists, so 100% of the module surface is capable of plant growth, Fytogreen have meet the growing demand for small scale floating wetlands with positive buoyancy.  The floating wetland modules are light, easy to install and plant, expandable to over 1,000m2 and supported by independent engineering. Fytogreens floating wetland modules are 100% Australian made and manufactured at Fytogreen head office on the Mornington Peninsula, all components are long life and warrantable and the tether/anchor systems is developed as either an in-lake or bank anchor.
A Safe, Strong and Sustainable SystemsÂ
Fytogreen developed the modular system that remains above the waterline when walked on, meaning maintenance is easy. With independent engineering certification, the system is expandable up to greater than 1,000m2 as a vegetated pontoon. Safe, strong and sustainable, our modules can be used as temporary or permanent measure with an expected lifespan of 15 years or more. We design each system with indigenous wetland species that deliver on your project goals and our maintenance service ensure your long-term needs are met (if required).
Fytogreen’s floating module system is hydroponic, thereby plants receive all nutrition directly from the water column; this ensures plants direct all their potential to absorb nutrients, including pollutants and heavy metals, directly from the water they are growing in, rather than organics held within their rooting substrate. Â
This is a highly efficient means of utilising vegetation to condition a site, aiding in rehabilitation and remediation towards healthier conditions and habitats. Our floating wetlands also provide native wildlife refuge - Floating Islands provide a safe nesting site away from introduced predators ie. foxes or cats.
