Industry Veteran Launches Phase II Stormwater Products

July 21, 2008
New company to offer environmentally friendly erosion control products

For ten years, John Engwer’s GroundScapes Express has been a trusted resource for erosion control solutions, called on by architects, engineers and municipalities across New England. Engwer has developed ecologically sound erosion control products, using them for his own projects and gaining widespread support from engineers, architects and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection.

Engwer has just launched Phase II Stormwater Products to offer his patented products to the landscaping and erosion control industry in an effort to broaden the scope of his ecological stewardship and educate the industry and public about the importance of these practices.

“With the new focus on green issues,” said Engwer, who has run his own landscaping and erosion control businesses since 1979, “we thought it was finally time to spread the word about what we’ve been doing to support the environment. We have developed and patented erosion control products, cultivated one of the cleanest compost farms in the nation and are working to let people know about the right way to protect both the land and our water supply. These products can open a new stream of income for companies who have invested in blower trucks and hydroseeders.”

Phase II Stormwater Products offers the following: the microbial FilterMitt, the microbial FilterMitt berm, EarthBlanket, Activate, biologically active structural soils and plant materials.
