About Us

Our Story

InfraSGA was founded by experienced landscape architects and civil engineers with decades of experience designing successful green infrastructure solutions. Their clients have stretched across the U.S. with a range of project types in both public and private sectors. With this experience, their knowledge of available product solutions (and their shortcomings) revealed an absence in the market. InfraSGA was born from their frustration with existing product solutions and their desire for green infrastructure to be attainable by all. In 2018, InfraSGA was founded, and RAFT has been developed as the solution to the problems they encountered. 

Since 2018, InfraSGA has steadily built the business around the advancement of green infrastructure. Culminating in 2023, we are taking the next step towards making green infrastructure attainable by all. Our debut product, RAFT, has been successfully implemented in three pilot projects and has demonstrated that it is ready for additional implementation in the wider market.

 

The development of green infrastructure products is not an easy task, and we would not have been successful without the generous support of RISE Resilience Innovations. Thank you for the opportunity to innovate a new solution within this difficult industry and for the chance to make a positive impact for communities and ecosystems alike.
