Mobilane will be unveiling its new LivePanel modular wall system at Ecobuild 2010. LivePanel will present the market with the most flexible system for decorating exterior or interior walls with a wide range of plants.
LivePanel consists of individual sections which are fixed to the wall or building using a lightweight aluminium frame. These sections can be cut to virtually any shape or size, making them extremely flexible and suited to a wide range of applications.
The specially developed and patented system has within it a substrate of Rockwool mineral wool specifically developed for living wall applications and into which the plants can easily take root. The substrate also allows water and nutrients to be added easily to ensure the plants remain well fed and watered and so ensuring the long term sustainability of the LivePanel living wall system.
A wide range of plants can be selected with the client’s requirements and local environmental conditions in mind. The system is low maintenance and features a fully automated irrigation system. LivePanel is easy to fit around doors and windows and can be extended to roof areas.
Talking about LivePanel, Sean Farrell of Mobilane said; “We are now entering the second phase of living wall technology. The first phase has focused on the industry working to overcome the challenge of developing systems and ensuring they perform. Mobilane systems offer proven superior performance and now we are entering the second phase where we are looking at ways of offering design flexibility.
“LivePanel allows near unlimited aesthetic and creative possibilities, both in shape and in plant types and colour. Designers can use different shades of green or bright colours. You can even recreate a company logo in plants.
“The use of Rockwool mineral wool also delivers a range of additional performance benefits. Rockwool’s market leading thermal, acoustic and fire insulation properties are well known.“
Mobilane will be exhibiting at Ecobuild on stand no.1569. LivePanel is being featured in the groundbreaking ‘Living Building’ being installed at the event by Capita Symonds and which has been designed by Chelsea Flower Show gold medal winner Patrick Collins.
