ENHANCING LIFE BENEATH THE WAVES™

"Exo Engineering are a key partner in the Catchment to Coast Project, part of the DEFRA’s Flood and Coastal Resilience Innovation Programme. Their role in the project is to provide innovative Nature Inclusive Designs for the initiative’s coastal sites around Southend on Sea. These designs both protect the coastline from erosion and provide habitats for important species in the region. Their expertise in habitat provision, licencing and ability to tailor bespoke designs to our sites with a quick turnaround time, has been invaluable in helping us meet the aims of the project. Thanks to Exo Engineering, the Catchment to Coast Project has seen world-first nature inclusive concepts installed on our coasts and we are excited to monitor the impact on local biodiversity in the years to come."

“EXO Engineering have provided excellent communication throughout the project even during the preconstruction stages in 2021 / 2022. All project parties are very impressed with the GeoBlock and the texture of the units to enhance and create new marine habitats and ecology. The units demonstrated very early signs of ‘greening’ and have continued to flourish since installation back in November 2022. Delivery of the units themselves was exceptional. Kier have been very satisfied and pleased with EXO Engineering throughout the preconstruction and construction stages of the Newlyn Tidal R&D project. EXO Engineering have fabricated and delivered exceptional GeoBlock ECO armour units for the project where all parties, including Kier, the Environment Agency and Atkins, have been very impressed with the quality of finish of the units. Overall a very exceptional service from EXO Engineering and would highly recommend.”

“We are delighted to host Exo Engineering's subtidal pilot deployment which will provide valuable real-world data on their innovative scour protection which aims to benefit biodiversity. This project highlights META’s pre-consented test sites can be used for a wide variety of testing activities, not just energy convertors, but innovative components designed for the offshore renewables sector as well.”
