Celebrating World Soil Day — and Rethinking What “Soil” Means in Our Cities.

Healthy soil is one of the planet’s most valuable resources. It nurtures biodiversity, supports food systems, regulates water, and stores carbon. But in modern urban environments natural soil isn’t always an option.

This is where engineered media becomes critical.

In our new white paper, Why Engineered Media Matters, we explore how purpose-designed mineral substrates mimic the best qualities of natural soil while offering the stability, longevity and performance needed for complex urban landscapes.

Unlike traditional organic mixes, engineered media:

• Maintains long-term structure without collapsing or compacting
• Provides consistent air-void space for healthy root growth
• Offers predictable drainage and water retention
• Reduces long-term maintenance and replacement costs

On World Soil Day, we’re proud to highlight the role that engineered media plays in advancing sustainable, green cities. Because even when it’s not “soil” in the traditional sense — the right substrate is still the foundation of thriving urban ecosystems.
