Living wall system Tecnical data sheet

Fytotextile® system Patented modular system composed of three flexible organic and synthetic fabric layers, of reduced thickness. All sides are interconnectable and can have a maximum capacity of 36 (6x6) or 49 plants (7x7). All modules include a top flange for assembling and checking the drip irrigation system. Due to its advanced technological development and to the years of R+D+i results, carried out by the Urban Greening & Biosistem Engineering - Research Group AGR 268 from the University of Seville, Fytotextile system presents key competitive advantages that differentiate it from the rest...

Green wall elements for Fytotextile® system Fytotextile® system for green facades is composed of flexible multilayer modules, that are industrially produced. The modules connect with each other using a metallic framework which is attached to an existing resistant wall. This living wall system has been developed and patented by Terapia Urbana at the University of Sevilla. Fytotextile® is the best solution for medium and large sizes living walls. The installation of the system is easy, fast and specially designed for professionals. It has been successfully installed in more than 21.000m2 of...

Fytotextile® system assembly process AUXILIARY STRUCTURE Framework will be screwed to the supporting wall with resistant and waterproof connections. Drainage gutter will be installed with a minimum slope of 2% to assure drain of water. MODULE PLACEMENT Once the rail profile is placed, back flap of the Fytotextile module needs to be inserted into the rail FYT-VOL. Place the module vertically and aligned with the rail, and slightly slip it from right to left until the end. IRRIGATION LINES AND DRIPPERS SCREW PERIMETER The perimeter of the system and vertical overlapping between modules will be...
