As the demand for new housing and infrastructure grows , UK Developers are required to meet the Biodiversity Net Gain ( BNG ) policy , ie that all new development projects contribute to the recovery of nature , with a mandate to increase biodiversity by at least 10 %. Among the tools available to you , as developers , planting more hedges is a highly effective , accessible way to foster biodiversity within urban and suburban landscapes , and support BNG requirements . Instant hedges are a smart choice that balance nature with growth .
Immediate Biodiversity Benefits Instant hedges have the advantage of being pre-grown , meaning they arrive on site mature , dense and up to 2m high . They and capable of providing immediate habitat and food sources for a variety of wildlife . This “ ready-made ” green infrastructure allows developers to create ecologically functional spaces from day one , eliminating the lag that often accompanies conventional hedgerow planting . Instant hedges are emerging as a highly effective , accessible way to enhance habitat connectivity and support BNG requirements . They will also contribute towards BREEAM certification , having both social and ecological benefits . Practical Instant Hedge™ Our UK grown Practical Instant Hedge™ has the following benefits :
