Energy saving through vertical gardens

Vertical gardens are a sustainable solution for improving the energy efficiency of buildings.

By making the most of naturally available resources, they make it possible to redevelop entire urban areas, drastically lowering air pollution and improving the health of citizens.

By designing structures with new vertical green technologies in mind, and biophyllic design, energy consumption can be greatly reduced.

Indeed, worldwide, energy use is the main source of greenhouse gas emissions and carcinogenic pollutants from human activity.

Buildings housing vertical gardens need less energy and can be maintained by a minimal amount of renewable energy.

Saving energy in real estate benefits not only our energy bills but also the environmental consequences that would have resulted if we had tapped fossil fuels, since elements such as coal and oil are saved.

In recent years, Green Habitat has been dedicated to creating innovative and sustainable products whose main goal is to improve comfort and well-being in the environments in which we live, giving nature a chance to grow where it would have been impossible.

Green Hydro’s new Wall Green system, produced and patented by Green Habitat, represents a new frontier for sustainable building, allowing any surface to be clad by anchoring directly onto it without any predispositions, creating a ventilated facade.

The modular system offers great design adaptability, available in different formats, which, when placed side by side, allow large areas to be developed, or alternated with other coverings to make even small portions in the facade.

Wall Green Hydro is the ideal solution for energy and environmental upgrading of buildings and helps achieve the desired energy classes.

Thanks to these innovations we have the opportunity to minimize the impact that buildings have on air pollution, creating plant lungs in the cities where we live, improving people’s living conditions and reducing the pollution that is irreparably harming our planet.

From an early age we have been taught that plants convert CO2 to Oxygen, in reality, however, they really do more.

They act as natural filters and rid the air of toxins and pollutants such as atmospheric particulate matter, which we always hear about as a great danger in our cities.

One example is the famous “Urban Canyons” where between streets buildings trap pollutants produced by vehicular traffic and fossil-fueled heating systems, vertical greenery is able to radically improve the situation by purifying the air and trapping toxic substances and fine particulate matter, which are removed from the air we breathe, improving our health.
