The BioActive Wall

It’s easy to build a green wall.

It takes a unique expertise to create a
BioActive Wall.

In the interest of maximising space, green walls have become an increased presence in home, office, building and shopping centre design.

With the benefits of the mere presence of plants so far reaching, it makes sense to want to infuse spaces with nature.

However, most green walls are a collection of hanging plants that are simply bolted onto the wall. Over time, this installation technique will inhibit growth and lead to roots being strangled.

On the other hand, the BioActive Wall, designed by CityForest founder, Chris Allison, is a superior and innovative vertical garden system. Combining his expertise and experience, the BioActive Wall is a seven-layer system that allows roots to grow uninhibited.

By affording plants the space to grow across and through the structure, this green wall system creates an environment that almost mimics nature.

This way, spores of plants ranging from ferns to lichens can be naturally reproduced on the wall. With authenticity at the fore, the BioActive Wall is a step forward in green wall technology.

Innovative to the core, the BioActive Wall preaches sustainability. With this in mind, when compared to traditional green walls, the BioActive Wall requires less water, less maintenance, less space, less weight and less plastic.

The ability to save on water stems from shying away from using traditional green wall techniques. Rather than requiring water to drip from pot to pot and essentially wasting water, the BioActive Wall works to water the surface area from plants to then draw from.

When it comes to a BioActive Wall, the options are seemingly limitless. Whether your space requires larger plants, smaller plants or pops of colour, with the BioActive Wall, we can confidently and competently design an elaborate wall for your needs.

Our mission to constantly create and implement advanced techniques is underpinned by simply understanding plants and how they function and thrive. By allowing roots to spread and grow, they can be healthy and therefore lay the foundation for healthy plants to thrive.

Flourishing plants lead to fewer replacement costs and maintenance needs. On the other hand, when roots are restricted and constantly fighting against strangulation, maintenance and replacement costs begin to add up.

By creating such a stable and positive environment for plants, creativity can soar.

With traditional green walls, there are restrictions on the types of plants that can and cannot be used because of the associated installation techniques. As the BioActive Wall is so hospitable to plants, our green wall can accommodate a wider variety of greenery.

What are the benefits of having a BioActive Wall installed?

  • Most green walls drip water from pot to pot. This wastes water because a lot of it drips to the ground or evaporates.

    Our system “waters” the surface area, which plants then draw upon.

  • Healthy roots mean healthy plants. And when roots are able to spread and flourish, fewer plants need to be replaced.

    That significantly reduces maintenance and costs.

  • The Bioactive Wall sits 100mm from the wall. Most green walls are 200 - 300mm.

  • Our unique hardware weighs less than 15kg per square meter.

  • The Bioactive Wall is made almost entirely from recycled fabrics. This removes microplastics from our water supplies and oceans.

    Meanwhile, this fabric is lightweight and incredibly effective at retaining water.

  • Because our hydroponic system “waters” the surface area, we’re able to monitor the moisture level of the entire wall.

    This means plants will not be over or under watered

  • Because the Bioactive Wall is so hospitable to plants, our green walls can accommodate a wider variety.

    This includes larger plants that create greater contrast and, therefore, more elaborate and beautiful walls.

  • Stronger roots, a better water monitoring system, and most experience in the southern hemisphere means our Bioactive wall will provide a superior environment for your plants to thrive.
