We’re not just “passionate” about the environment. We see the real risks that come with not doing what we can to heal and protect nature. Not only do we need it to continue our jobs and what we love, but we need it to live and breathe.

This is why we are working on solving global challenges with microorganisms. 🌿

Industrial sites often deal with tough chemical spills and soil issues that seem impossible to clean up. Here is a quick look at three big environmental concerns and how we use nature and science to fix them:

• Hydrocarbons (Oil & Fuel Spills):

What they are: Petroleum and fuel leaks that linger in soil and water.
How we fix them: We use specialized, friendly bacteria that literally eat oil and fuel, turning them into safe, harmless byproducts.

• Sulfolane (Refinery Solvents):

What it is: A chemical used in oil refining that dissolves in water and sneaks deep into underground drinking sources.
How we fix them: We deploy targeted microbes beneath the surface that break down the solvent before it can spread into surrounding water wells.

• PFAS ("Forever Chemicals"):

What they are: Toxic, man-made chemicals found in non-stick products and firefighting foam that never break down naturally.
How we fix them: Through cutting-edge research, we’ve found specific microbes that can break apart these "indestructible" chemical bonds and destroy PFAS safely.

By pairing custom microbes with smart research, Fixed Earth turns "impossible" site cleanups into healthy, restored ecosystems. 🌿

Our microbes can be sprayed with the PlantAir drone! ✈️

A microbe is a living organism too small to be seen by the naked eye, including beneficial bacteria and fungi, that help create healthy soils by breaking down organic material into nutrients that plant roots can absorb. Think of this as vitamins and probiotics for your soil.

This is where the drone comes in for spraying. We have fitted our drone with a sprayer designed specifically for microbes so that we can not only support growth but also do it quickly and efficiently.

Remediation, reclamation, and restoration get used interchangeably, but for us, they represent three distinct stages of land recovery.

Swipe through to see how each step works and how biological tools help streamline the process from the ground up! 🌿

So cool to see some of the innovative projects we've been involved in get recognized. Fixed Earth worked with VIYA Environmental on this project to do what we do best: isolate site-specific microbes that can break down the contaminant of concern (in this case, primarily PFAS) and assist with data interpretation. This was a challenging site, and we're happy that our technologies helped to make a difference.

Today, we recognize the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

It is not simply a day off, but a dedicated time to read, listen, learn, and commit to actions that advance reconciliation. While today serves as an important annual reminder, these responsibilities belong in our everyday lives. Taking meaningful accountability where we live, work, and lead is at the heart of genuine progress. That begins by prioritizing Indigenous perspectives and deeply absorbing the truths shared by Survivors. Wearing orange is a meaningful entry point, but the real work lies in turning that symbolic gesture into lasting, everyday practice.

At Fixed Earth and PlantAir, we are proud to continue working alongside the many Nations across our region. 🧡

We had a great time at the Healing the Land Conference in Moberly Lake last week. It was great to chat with everyone who visited our booth. Thanks to Saulteau First Nation for having us and putting on a great conference!

Before any of our microbial solutions go out into the field, it all starts right here in the lab. We work directly with our clients to study site samples, isolate helpful microbes, and test how well they break down tough pollutants like hydrocarbons and PFAS. 🔬

By running careful experiments, we make sure every solution is proven to work before putting it to use in the real world.

We’re working behind the scenes on a big website update that we can’t wait to launch! 🌎

We're excited to attend the Healing the Land Conference in Moberly Lake on September 22-24 and to be a sponsor. Visit our booth to discuss our efforts in remediation, restoration, and more! We look forward to seeing you there!
