Omni Infinity Media is an effective solution for stormwater management. It has long-lasting high porosity, providing triple the volume control compared to typical prepared soils.
Use of Omni Infinity Media for stormwater management provides 3x the stormwater management in the same volume as typical prepared soils. Said another way, Omni Infinity Media requires 1/3 the volume for the same stormwater management as typical prepared soils. Additionally, due to Omni Infinity Media’s light weight, it can manage that stormwater volume at less weight than typical prepared soils, which is beneficial for on-structure use, easier installation, and reduced shipping costs.
Omni Infinity Media consists of GEO — a highly porous, sterile, abundant geologic material — and BIO — laboratory grown biota.
GEO makes up more than 95% of Omni Infinity Media and is used at variable depths from as little as 3 inches to over 6 feet to provide a healthy rooting environment. It has 77.7 – 85.0% porosity and exceptional water retention & infiltration, and its high porosity remains high over time.
BIO is a thin top-dressing, applied at 1/4” depth over any depth GEO to grow a soil ecosystem. BIO introduces the building blocks of soil development, including more than 1,500 species of microbes.
Both GEO and BIO are made in America, peat free, and available nationwide with a short lead time.
More than 830 plant taxa are documented to have successfully grown in Omni Infinity Media. Established vegetation can help prevent suspended solids, excess nutrients, and heavy metals from entering waterways.
Use of Omni Infinity Media has significantly reduced brownfield redevelopment costs, especially when a contaminated site needs to meet stormwater requirements. This green stormwater management solution can also eliminate expensive gray infrastructure like cisterns or detention basin risers.

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.

Omni Infinity Media was placed on top of this brownfield’s engineered barrier. The result is a lush garden that manages stormwater and creates habitat without impacting the site’s NFR (no further remediation) letter.
