PRIME Greenwall
Brief description
The Greenwall 3D is a modular planting system with an integrated irrigation system made from recycled plastics for the construction of temporary architecture or so-called “green walls” in interior spaces to improve the indoor climate, room acoustics and reduce pollutant and CO2 emissions.
Every year, plastic processing companies produce tonnes of plastic waste. These cannot be fully reused. The project therefore looked for solutions to recycle plastic waste and convert it into new products. The Greenwall is dedicated to the “greening” of interior spaces in order to put the sometimes ill-reputed plastics and their durability at the service of nature.
