07 April 2020

Fytotextile - the solution for urban greening projects.

Greening up existing urban infrastructure is a challenge which brings with it clever design innovation from green infrastructure experts globally.

We use Fytotextile for both our living walls and as the support structure for new urban greening products designed by our in house team of designers such as Living Pillar.
