Kurtz Bros. is a family owned company and has been a leader in the manufacturing of soil-related and sustainability products for over sixty years. Over these years, the company has grown from just a topsoil provider to much, much more. Every endeavor Kurtz embarks on contains a beneficial re-use component. Whether it is mulch made from shredded bark of storm damage trees or pallets, aggregates from construction and demolition debris, compost from municipal water, or bioretention soil with spent sand for raingardens/bioswales, Kurtz knows how to close the loop. In the late 80's and 90's Kurtz began exploring beneficial reuse of foundry sand and was first in Ohio to be granted beneficial reuse permits. Today, they are happy to be working closely with municipalities on rainwater runoff solutions. They work with the Soil and Water Conservation groups in both Cleveland and Columbus areas and have been working diligently to promote bioretention swales and raingardens. (KB Bioretention Soil -the perfect blend for bioretention swales and raingardens). Kurtz employees at their RKDF Landfill site in Brooklyn Heights are lessoning the load on burgeoning landfills-sorting metals, brick and other construction/demolition debris has become much easier with the recent addition of new, MRF sorting machinery at the site.
Specialty soils such as urban soils, green roof mixes, stormwater management solutions are all additions to Kurtz already focused environmental sustainability initiatives as they look forward to continuing efforts to, as their tagline reads, “make the good earth better!”
