Green wall system - an ecological and efficient solution for your building

What is a green wall?

The green wall is a modern solution that combines aesthetics with functionality to create green building facades. The use of this system allows the walls to be decorated with vegetation, which not only improves the appearance of the building, but also affects air quality, reduces noise and improves thermal insulation. Thanks to the innovative design, it is possible to introduce vegetation on surfaces that would previously have been unusable for growing plants.

Green walls are becoming a popular solution in cities where there is a lack of space for classic gardens. Green façade systems offer the potential to increase biodiversity in built environments, improving air quality and offering a natural respite from the urban hustle and bustle.

The green wall system is a modern solution combining aesthetics with functionality, which consists of installing vertical gardens on the facades of buildings. Such a structure consists of modules that allow plant growth, irrigation systems and structural elements that ensure durability and convenience of use.

Examples of installations include facades mounted on wooden or load-bearing surfaces. They include waterproof membranes, irrigation mains, ANS green wall modules and special drainage gutters. A key element is carefully selected vegetation that enriches biodiversity, improves air quality and the aesthetics of the surroundings.

The creators of green walls are also concerned with sustainability, using renewable energy sources, closed-system rainwater and natural plant protection methods. As a result, the green wall system not only decorates buildings, but also contributes to environmental protection and improved living comfort.

A green wall system is a complex structure that consists of several key elements. Below are examples of the installation of a green façade system.

Facade installation for wood panel

  1. Wooden panel - provides a solid and aesthetically pleasing base for the plants.
  2. Waterproof membrane - protects the surface from moisture, ensuring the longevity of the system.
  3. Horizontal Zetter - used to connect the individual components of the system.
  4. Drainage trough - drains excess water to ensure plants have adequate moisture.
  5. ANS green wall module - special modules in which plants are placed.
  6. Vertical irrigation main - a system that delivers water to plants.
  7. Vegetation - appropriately selected plants that grow in the system.

Façade installation to supporting surface

  1. Load-bearing surface - the surface to which the system components are mounted.
  2. Brackets - allow individual components to be assembled.
  3. Vertical T-bar - a component for stabilising the system.
  4. Horizontal zeta - ensures structural durability.
  5. Drainage gutter - allows water to drain from the system.
  6. ANS green wall module - the main element of the system in which plants grow.
  7. Vertical irrigation main - delivers water to the plants.
  8. Vegetation - appropriately selected vegetation for outdoor conditions.
  9. Hydration line - precisely controls the humidity of the system.

Green Facades offer a number of benefits for both building users and the environment. Here are the key benefits of green wall systems:

Improving air quality
Vegetation placed on green walls absorbs air pollutants such as carbon dioxide, particulate matter and other toxins. In addition, plants improve air humidity, which benefits the health of the residents. Thanks to these properties, green walls become natural air purifiers, improving the quality of life in cities.

Protection against noise
Green walls also act as natural acoustic barriers. Vegetation absorbs sounds, which reduces noise from outside. In this way, especially in busy cities, green facades can help to create a quieter environment.

Reducing the heat island effect
Vegetation on building walls can also help to reduce the heat island effect that occurs in cities due to the large amount of asphalt and concrete. Greenery on facades acts as a natural thermal insulation, protecting the building from excessive heat in summer and keeping it warm in winter.

Aesthetics and biodiversity
Green walls allow nature to be introduced into urban spaces. They create beautiful, natural plant compositions that transform the appearance of buildings. In addition, plants on green facades create micro-ecosystems, increasing biodiversity in cities. With a variety of plant species, green walls attract insects, birds and other animals.

Green walls are an investment that pays dividends for many years to come. Thanks to the resilience of facade plants that are well prepared for outdoor conditions, green facade systems are durable and easy to maintain. What's more, with a comprehensive service that includes design, installation and maintenance, you are assured that your green wall will look great all year round.

Green façades also help to meet environmental standards, which is important for many builders who seek to realise sustainable projects.

The selection of plants for a green wall is crucial to its functioning. Depending on the location and the developer's preferences, different plant species can be chosen. It is worth considering plants that are resistant to changing weather conditions and can tolerate sun or shade well. Popular plants for green walls include Bergenia sercoliformis, Common bumblebee, Various varieties of cranesbill, Large-leaved brunnera, Common periwinkle, Halycon fuchsia.

Other green external solutions: MobiGreenFence and MobiRoof ECO.

MobiGreenFence is a modern solution for outdoor spaces that combines functionality with aesthetics. It is an ideal alternative to traditional green walls, offering an instant green effect and increasing biodiversity. With a green appearance on both sides, the fence will work well on construction sites, at events and also as a temporary barrier. It is an eco-friendly, reusable system that improves air quality and brings nature into urban spaces. In addition, MobiGreenFence can be combined with classic construction fences to create sustainable spaces.

MobiRoof ECO is a complete cassette system for the rapid creation of a green roof. Each cassette contains a substrate, which provides drainage and water storage, and 6-8 Sedum species. The easy installation allows for use on flat roofs and those with a pitch of up to 10°. The system allows any modification thanks to the interchangeable cassettes. The cassettes are manufactured from recycled materials and the production process is local and sustainable. Plants in the MobiRoof ECO system improve air quality, reduce UV radiation and extend the life of the roof.
