Green Walls really are bringing nature back to our urban environment. Providing a modern, hugely versatile, and sustainable design option for facades and free-standing structures, Green Walls are becoming increasingly important role in architects’ concepts and designs.

Whereas once the greening of buildings was left largely to nature, modern construction materials and methods allow us to provide sustainable living wall systems, that are light weight, fast to install, aesthetically pleasing and long lasting.

Combining stainless steel wire ropes, rods and mesh, our Green Wall systems allow architects to realise a variety of designs from new build applications to retrofitting a tired facade.

When installed on buildings and in public spaces, Green Walls make urban spaces more liveable for a variety of plant and insect species. A pleasant climate, less noise and better air quality are perceptible effects that also enhance the well-being of people living and working in or visiting a city.

From a purely aesthetic point of view, a Green Wall (or living) wall system can overhaul a tired, unattractive facade as well as extending lifespan by enabling a layer of weatherproofing protection.

Benefits of a Green Wall system:

  • Up to 35% energy savings due to evaporative cooling and shading of plants; meaning reduced carbon footprint.
  • Up to a 5 dB noise reduction due to exterior sound reflection and absorption.
  • Improved CO2 balance.
  • Upgrading unattractive building elements.
  • Improved air quality.

However, Green Walls do not just have to be large external systems. Internal applications, including single cable systems will also improve the indoor climate by filtering particles and CO2 in exchange for oxygen, dampen noise and add an inspiring touch of green inside.
