Description
Our patented system has been developed over the years and is based on an innovative plant‑based textile substrate that stores rainwater, channels it, and distributes it directly to the plants — a fully autonomous system.
The result is a solution that is:
• modular
• scalable
• circular
• economically viable
• digitally monitorable
For us, façade greening is not mere decoration. It is a functional building technology.
In our approach, digitalisation and sustainability go hand in hand. Temperature evolution, water balance, ecological impact, and operational data are analysed, documented, and optimised over time. Through monitoring and data collection, we make these effects visible (surface thermal insulation, Class A acoustic absorption).
We offer a complete service package — from the feasibility study, which allows us to assess the ecological, functional, and economic potential of a façade, to design, plant selection, implementation, and long‑term monitoring.
Our product continues to evolve.
This system is scalable, resource‑efficient, and cost‑effective. It helps property owners, municipalities, and companies implement climate‑adaptation measures effectively while creating environmental, social, and economic value.
