Thames Water Utilities has been developing the composting of dewatered biosolids since 1987. In 1993 growing trials started to test the suitability of the matured compost as a base material for making growing media.

The Multi-purpose compost, Growing bag and Soil improver perform as well as the brand leading peat based products.
