Omni Infinity Media
stormwater infrastructure that grows thriving landscapes
Omni Infinity Media® (OIM) is a lightweight, high-performance stormwater growth media used for predictable hydraulic performance, long-term stability, and rapid living soil formation in green stormwater infrastructure (GSI). OIM can significantly reduce construction costs related to achieving stormwater management requirements.
Unlike conventional prepared soils used in green roofs, bioswales and other GSI applications, Omni Infinity Media provides predictable, long-term stormwater storage & infiltration performance while rapidly forming living soil. Its geologic structure delivers the reliability of infrastructure. Its biology enables the growth and evolution of living landscapes. The result is a complete soil ecosystem that manages water, supports plants, and performs for decades.

A complete living soil ecosystem
Omni Infinity Media is comprised of two packaged components: GEO and BIO.
Omni Infinity Media integrates geology and biology to create soil that performs both physically and ecologically. It includes:
GEO – a lightweight mineral aggregate that provides pore space and long-term stormwater performance
BIO – a biological component that introduces the microbial communities necessary for soil development and ecosystem function
Together, these technologies enable Omni Infinity Media to function as stormwater infrastructure while forming living soil from consistent specified inputs.
BIO and GEO are produced to stringent quality control standards, making them unmatched among growth media for high quality, reliable consistency, and universal availability across the U.S. Learn more about BIO and GEO.
ONE SOIL. INFINITE APPLICATIONS.
Omni Infinity Media enables high-performance landscapes wherever stormwater management and lightweight, clean growth media are required:
Bioretention systems, bioswales & stormwater infrastructure
Planters, tree pits & suspended pavement
Brownfields and challenging urban sites
Its unique combination of lightweight structure, hydraulic performance, and biological function allows landscapes to succeed where conventional soils cannot.

The Salt Shed
Use of Omni Infinity Media saved this project hundreds of thousands of dollars across the civil, environmental, and landscape budgets. All of the landscape on the 4-acre Morton Salt site is rooted in Omni Infinity Media, which manages all of the required stormwater and eliminated hauling of the in-situ soils.

GOING BEYOND STORMWATER PERFORMANCE
RAPIDLY FORMS SOIL
Beyond its function as stormwater infrastructure, Omni Infinity Media is designed to become living soil. Following installation, biological processes begin immediately. Microbial communities establish, plant roots develop, and soil ecosystems form. Within months, Omni Infinity Media transforms from installed media into a stable, self-sustaining living soil. This living soil supports plant health and ecological function over time while maintaining its structural and hydraulic performance.
PROVEN TO SUPPORT DIVERSE PLANT COMMUNITIES
Omni Infinity Media has successfully supported more than 1,000 plant taxa across a wide range of climates and applications. From native grasses and perennials to shrubs and trees, it provides a stable, oxygen-rich environment for root development and long-term plant health. Its ability to support both plant growth and stormwater management allows landscapes to function as integrated ecological infrastructure.
A PROVEN TRACK RECORD
Don’t just take it from us. Omni Infinity Media has a proven track record for 2 decades running, has won 12 Awards of Excellence from GRHC, and is trusted by engineers, owners, contractors, and architects nationwide.
“(The Omni) prairie functions more as a thriving ecosystem than a green roof.”
“Omni’s soil is ideal for constrained sites and made for the perfect environment for a diverse palette.”
“Omni is a game changer! Our builders appreciate how lightweight and easy it is to move, making the work much less strenuous.”
