Châlons agglomération
Chalons en Champagne
As part of the conversion of a former military bastion into an urban district, located on the former Chanzy barracks in Châlons-En-Champagne (51), the Châlons Agglo Urban Community wanted expert advice on issues relating to the quality of the soil in place and its potential for reuse as part of the future uses planned for the project, in order to meet a circular economy challenge. The aim was to gain an overall view of the soil resources within the study site, so as to significantly reduce, if not totally eliminate, the need for topsoil for the creation of future green spaces, by reusing in situ the soil already present on the site.
By reusing soil on site, the project has avoided tonnes of CO₂eq emissions and reduced waste and resource extraction. From an economic point of view, it has saved several hundred thousand euros in transport and soil disposal costs. The solution offers a high return on investment while supporting circular economy and biodiversity objectives.
EODD provides comprehensive soil diagnostics to assess the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of soils, with the goal of restoring their health, biodiversity, and functionality. By integrating soil knowledge into land development and ecological transition projects, EODD offers tailored, operational recommendations for soil management, renaturation, refunctionalization, and reconstruction.Healthy soils are essential for climate resilience, biodiversity, food security, and sustainable development. Yet, most soils today are degraded due to human activities. At EODD, soils and their ecosystems are at the heart of every project, from urban redevelopment and infrastructure planning to large-scale land rehabilitation. The multidisciplinary team works with public and private stakeholders to develop context-specific, nature-based solutions. EODD believes in sustainable land use that respects natural cycles and supports long-term ecological balance.
