Peatland Restoration

 

 Peatland Restoration: Climate Action and Ecosystem Revival

 

Stag Infrastructure is committed to tackling the challenge of climate change through effective Peatland Restoration. Degraded peatlands release stored carbon dioxide into the atmosphere; our work is essential in repairing these vital habitats to ensure they once again become powerful carbon sinks that actively lock in carbon dioxide. This process provides long-term, measurable environmental stability for the Scottish landscape.

 

Specialised Approach for Challenging Environments

Successfully repairing peatlands requires a specialised approach, especially in challenging upland environments. We deploy a team of skilled, experienced operatives utilising specialised low ground pressure (LGP) machinery. This ensures minimal disturbance to the delicate peat structure and allows us to carry out restoration work precisely and efficiently, even in remote or sensitive areas.

 

Restoring Biodiversity and Habitat Health

The work extends beyond carbon sequestration. Once a degraded peatland has been successfully repaired, it initiates a profound refreshing of the ecosystems within these environments. This encourages a wide range of native species—from unique flora to essential wildlife—to thrive once again, promoting overall habitat health and biodiversity across the restored landscape.
