Constructed Wetlands by PowerCem UK
Building with Nature. Delivering with Innovation.
PowerCem UK helps water utilities and engineering partners create high-performing constructed wetlands that are as practical as they are sustainable. Our technology redefines how wastewater treatment landscapes are built across the UK, using innovative ground stabilisation methods that eliminate the need for imported materials and reduce environmental impact.
With over a decade of experience collaborating with major UK water companies, PowerCem UK has established itself as a trusted partner in delivering large-scale, low-carbon wetland infrastructure. Our mission is simple: to make natural treatment systems more efficient, resilient and environmentally responsible.
Transforming Local Soils into Long-Lasting Infrastructure
Traditional wetland construction often depends on materials such as clay, stone or plastic liners, which require heavy transport and significant carbon emissions. PowerCem’s advanced Nano Catalyst binder changes this entirely. By combining zeolites and alkaline earth metals, our technology allows the soil already available on site to be stabilised, compacted and transformed into a durable, impermeable base.
This approach removes the need for excavation or import of aggregates, dramatically reducing both cost and carbon footprint. Thousands of vehicle movements can be avoided, allowing contractors to deliver projects faster and more sustainably. The result is a stable foundation that performs for decades, ensuring the wetland system operates efficiently with minimal maintenance.
From Concept to Completion, We Deliver Results
Our wetland construction technology has been successfully deployed across multiple UK projects. Notable examples include Yorkshire Water’s South Elmsall Wetlands, developed in partnership with Eric Wright Water, Rodgers Leaskand DNS Midlands, and the Dearne Reach Constructed Wetlands, built in collaboration with Mott MacDonald Bentley.
These projects showcase how PowerCem’s ground engineering solutions help clients meet ambitious environmental and operational targets. Faster delivery, reduced waste and measurable carbon savings make our wetlands not just a sustainable choice but a strategic one.
Innovation Rooted in Sustainability
At the heart of our process is a commitment to circular construction. Every site is treated as a resource, not a burden. By using what is already there, we support a low-carbon approach that aligns with the goals of the UK water industry and future environmental regulations.
Our binder technology is inert, non-toxic and designed to last. It strengthens soil structure without compromising permeability where it is needed, creating a safe and stable environment for natural treatment processes to thrive. This harmony between engineering precision and ecological function defines the PowerCem approach.
Let’s Build the Future of Sustainable Water Management
PowerCem UK brings knowledge, experience and innovation to every project we undertake. From early design to on-site execution, we support our clients with technical expertise and proven solutions that reduce cost, risk and environmental impact.
If you are looking to deliver constructed wetlands that work in balance with nature while achieving real performance gains, PowerCem UK offers the technology and partnership to make it happen.
