The Living Wall

To enhance the look of our multi-deck car park, we installed a modular living wall system. The ANS Living Wall system has enabled us to turn the otherwise redundant wall space of our car park into a vertical living garden…and trust us, getting plants to grow and thrive on a vertical surface is an art!

Our living system uses natural soil to ensure the plants are rooted in their natural environment; it also includes a built-in irrigation system.

The supply of water to the wall is essential to healthy plant development. The back of each living wall module is kept moist to facilitate the natural composting of mature roots. Harvested rainwater from the building roof can be used for the wall.

Unlike some other living wall systems, the ANS Living Wall system does not rely on artificial fertilizers being pumped through the wall constantly. However, the irrigation system can be used to add a natural fertiliser or organic pesticides throughout the whole wall, as required.

The system reduces water wastage as it includes natural soil, thereby allowing plants to absorb water and nutrients naturally rather than keeping them alive with a frequent flow of water and nutrients.

In addition, the bespoke module is made from recycled material and is recyclable too.
