Quality and sustainability are part of Sempergreen’s core values. Thanks to these values, various SemperGreenwall systems have obtained multiple certifications and awards, including Bronze-level Cradle to Cradle certification.
The plants in a living wall filter particulate matter from the air and convert CO2 into oxygen. 1 m² of living wall extracts 2.3 kg of CO2 per annum from the air and produces 1.7 kg of oxygen. With a living wall you contribute to air purification.
Plants absorb sunlight, 50% is absorbed and 30% reflected; so this helps to create a cooler and more pleasant climate. For the indoor climate this means that 33% less air conditioning is required, which in turn means energy savings. An outdoor living wall also has a positive influence on the heat-island effect in the city. Overall, it means a 3°C reduction in the city.
A living wall acts as a sound barrier to the building. Based on test results the SemperGreenwall Indoor absorbs 85% of the ambient noise. Please be aware that the precise acoustic value always depends on factors such as the size of the room and ceiling height. In case of the SemperGreenwall Outdoor, different factors regarding the outside environment need to be taken into account.

The plants that are included in the a living wall promote the habitat of birds, butterflies and insects, especially in the city environment which is mainly concrete and asphalt.
A living wall absorbs rain water because the plants and substrate act as a water buffer. This delays the discharge of rainwater to the sewage system, purifies the rainwater, and water also evaporates through the plants. So this all helps to stabilize the groundwater level, reduces the peak load on the sewage system and so reduces the risk of flooding.
Using the carefully pre-cultivated SemperGreenwall panels you can achieve a direct-green result. On delivery, the facade boasts 90% coverage, so you can reap the benefits immediately.
