Ground screws offer a complete foundation solution that
provides a strong, level base for our projects.
As well as taking less time to install than traditional
concrete foundations, ground screws provide the
following benefits to our customers:

The making of a solid, sustainable foundationSustainability is at the core of everything No More Digging
does, and it’s a significant benefit to their product.
Working in close partnership, RADIX and No More Digging
have developed a foundation system that provides a low
carbon alternative to concrete. Ground screws use fewer
resources and cause less damage to the environment.
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
Foundations that help protect the planet
You enjoy the increased speed and reduced cost of
using ground screw foundations, without the digging,
disruption and mess.
Your local environment benefits from a project that
uses no concrete foundations.
Ground screws make hard-to-access areas accessible, with minimal impact, damage or disruption to the environment. Co

Replacing concrete with ground screws for your project will
make a difference. It’s a small difference, but being
environmentally-friendly is about us making many small
changes together. As you can see from these statistics,
concrete is harming the environment – in a big way.
By switching to ground screws for your project:
* Based on the evidence showing that 1 tonne of cement
produces 1.25 tonnes of embedded carbon, and 1 tonne
of steel produces 1.8 tonnes of embedded carbon.
Ground screws use less material to produce a solid
foundation and so has less enviornmental impact.
Concrete Ground Screws
If we take a plot of land needing foundations for a 4m x 5m timber garden
room, the impact to the enviornment is clear.
A conventional concrete base would use a
minimum of 1 tonne of cement, producing
1.25 tonnes of embedded carbon.
Alternatively, 16 ground screws weighing
8.5kg produces only 244.8kg of
embedded carbon.
