Description

Mobile Vertical Greenings consist of living wall modules that are fixed to a hook lift container platform. The vegetation cover is very diverse in order to illustrate the high potential of living walls to increase amenity value and stimulate biodiversity. While it can offer small-scale environmental services like clean air provision, cooling and shading, the mobile green living room is primarily used for educational purposes. For example, it can be used as a mobile demonstration for green infrastructure, as a test feature, a temporary green installation or as an open green office for information and communication purposes.

Conditions for Implementation
  • The installation should have an onboard irrigation system
  • Space need for loading and unloading
  • The installation surface needs to be flat (<3°)
  • Permission from local authorities are needed for installation
