Why Verti-Cool
In recent years, there has been an emphasis on reducing the environmental impact of mankind, and a greater focus on greener, more sustainable living.
One area of interest is to improve thermal insulation in buildings, therefore reducing energy requirements for heating or cooling. Another area is to reduce the net "carbon footprint" for the occupants of buildings, by offsetting C02 emissions with plants, and the urban heat island effect to cities.
Furthermore, buildings in urban and suburban areas have the detrimental impact of depriving habitat to native wildlife.
Verti-Cool provides panels that are suitable for buildings or form free standing walls, that grow plants. This unique structure is made from strong resin bonded gravel. The benefit of this vertical wall is it's as strong as brick, block or concrete walls.
Inside the panels is a long lasting mineral soil media, suitable for healthy plant and root growth. The wall panels contain an internal irrigation system that waters plants.
Verti-Cool is a modular vertical garden system that can withstand hard knocks when located near ground level to avoid damage from vandalism.
