With GreenSolutions by Jakob Rope Systems the greening of buildings is no longer restricted to expensive large-scale projects. A ground-based greening with stainless steel cables and the wire mesh Webnet is also an option for family homes or other smaller structures. The plant supports out of stainless steel are easily installed and low in maintenance. The greening can cover the whole building or only parts of the facade. With the appropriate climbing aids, the growth of the plants can be directed and included into the architecture of the building.
Webnet and products from the GreenSolutions range are perfectly adapted for the use indoors. Indoor greenings provide numerous advantages: they improve the indoor climate by filtering particles and CO2 in exchange for oxygen, they dampen noise and add an inspiring touch of green inside.
The MFO park in Zurich is a spectacular example for how greening with stainless steel cables by Jakob Rope Systems can define a whole new experience of public spaces. Climbing plants on supports add a vertical dimension to public parks and bring green to urban areas where there is little space for landscape design in the traditional sense. The flexibility of stainless steel cables and wire meshes means there are few limits regarding the design, even three dimensional greenings are possible.
The outstanding quality of our stainless steel cables and Greening Solution parts is their flexibility. All parts have been carefully designed to fit perfectly together and allow endless possibilities to combine them This makes them perfect to realize your own greening project, be it a small trellis on a wall, a plant support in your garden or courtyard.
