Leading UK turf and topsoil supplier Rolawn announces a strategic realignment of its brand portfolio, with BioScapes becoming the lead Group brand and Rolawn, Hallstone and newly launched BluWater Solutions operating as specialist sub-brands.
The move responds to rising demand for nature-based solutions that help the built environment perform under climate pressure - bringing together expertise in water management, biodiversity and landscaping to deliver resilient landscapes with long-term value.
“BioScapes was created from a simple conviction: the future of outdoor spaces has to work harder - for people, for nature and for water,” said Paul Dawson, Managing Director and Chairman of the BioScapes Group. “We’re inspiring customers to exchange landscaping for ‘bioscaping’, creating places that balance nature with functionality and support life in every form. By connecting healthier landscapes, biodiversity and smarter rainfall management, we can help build a more resilient future.”
The Group is strengthening its blue-green innovation pipeline with developments including solutions for green and blue roofs and walls, in addition to partnerships with leading names in blue-green infrastructure, recently being named sole UK distribution and fulfilment partner for Hydrorock.
The realignment comes as the UK faces accelerating environmental and climate risks:
- Biodiversity loss: UK species have declined by around 19% on average since 1970, and nearly 1 in 6 are threatened with extinction 1.
- Surface water flooding: 4.6 million properties are currently at risk from surface water flooding in England 2.
- Wellbeing: Access to nature is consistently linked with better mental and physical health outcomes.
The Group’s ecologically sound product suite and associated services actively promote environmental stewardship, supporting the eco-system while creating opportunities for exposure to and interaction with nature.
Paul Bensley, Group Commercial Director of BioScapes Group, said: “This brand architecture is designed to simplify specification and procurement - enabling earlier collaboration and more integrated outcomes from concept and compliance through to installation and long-term performance.”
Under the new structure:
- BioScapes Group provides the strategic, joined-up offer across water, nature and wellbeing, translating complex requirements into practical, deliverable solutions.
- Rolawn remains the specialist brand for high-quality landscaping materials and expertise.
- Hallstone continues to make professional-grade landscaping materials easily accessible across the industry.
- BluWater Solutions leads on blue-green water management solutions, supporting sustainable drainage and resilient place-making.
The realignment of this leading group of companies marks an exciting period of growth and expansion intended to address market needs with a portfolio of future- proof products and services.
