Since 2002, Mobilane has been at the forefront of the development and use of Mobilane Green Screens in landscape and screening projects. The development of the WallPlanter system was an extension of this; a combination of numerous Green Screens into a sustainable system for green facades on existing and new buildings. Made up of specially developed planters into which fully-established hedge screens are planted, the WallPlanter screen network is attached to the building’s outer layer, creating a natural planted covering that not only looks attractive but works hard reducing PM10 pollutants, improving air quality and bringing a splash of nature on built structures such as multi-storey car parks, hotel and office complexes.
Instant greenery
A WallPlanter facade gives immediate natural foliage impact from Day One. Aluminium planters are planted with mature Mobilane Green Screens, grown on the nursery and delivered, fully-grown, ready for action. Commonly planted with Hedera Helix Woerner, this hardy dark-green ivy variety holds its evergreen foliage, all year round.
Low maintenance
With its smart automated irrigation and drainage systems, a WallPlanter green facade installation becomes self-sufficient for water and nutrients, requiring limited maintenance and upkeep.
Positive environmental impact
Its presence also contributes positively to the environment and the visual amenity. The dense foliage within the WallPlanter system works hard filtering the air in busy urban areas, improving the air quality and removing harmful pollutants from the surrounding neighbourhood.
Enhancing biodiversity further
Insects like bees are essential to our biodiversity. They play a crucial role in the pollination of our nature and contribute to the reproduction and development of our flora. The plants and flowers that grow as a result provide food and shelter to other animals, including humans. A professional bee hotel or nesting box provides a safe nesting, resting, and overwintering place.
The nesting boxes and bee hotels are made in a social workplace using sustainable Dutch Douglas wood. All nesting boxes and bee hotels comply with the guidelines of BIJ 12. These boxes are perfectly suitable for meeting the requirements of the Nature Conservation Act or for use in achieving BREEAM certification, which requires the placement of nesting boxes.The nesting boxes and bee hotels can be placed in or around all outdoor products from Mobilane and are available in various types and sizes. Please refer to the accessories page for more information.
