Jalan 19/70A, Sri Hartamas, Mont Kiara, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

To provide the modular green wall system to install four 3-storey high green wall panels facing the entrance to the condominium.

Elmich VGM^® Green Wall system was used to establish four 15 m high living walls to form the backdrop for a cascading water feature. The system certified to withstand wind uplift from various directions at 110km/h with no noticeable damage, is ideally suited for installation of the green wall on the high wall.

Pre-planted Vertical Greening Modules (VGM^®), each containing a geotextile bag filled with EnviroMix^®GW (a primarily inorganic lightweight planting media), are anchored onto stainless steel pilasters bolted directly to the wall. The Elmich VGM Green Wall anchoring system enables easy mounting and dismounting of VGMs during installation and maintenance. Anti-lift arms inserted in between modules prevent accidental dislodgement of VGMs from the wall by locking them to the mounting pilasters. An automated irrigation system delivers water and nutrients directly to plant roots to ensure healthy plant growth.

Private Residence at Oncidium Heights, Kota Kemuning, Selangor, Malaysia

To provide the green wall systems for fencing and guardhouse walls of bungalow.

VersiWall® GP Tray Planter
To achieve attractive design patterns along the fencing wall, VGP proprietary mounting panels were mounted onto metal frames in various designs bolted to the fencing wall of the bungalow.

Plants selected for their colour and suitability were planted in-situ in the VGP Trays. VGP Baffle Plates and Reservoir Covers were inserted prior to planting to help distribute irrigation to the soil media and prevent clogging of the discharge outlets at the base of each tray respectively. The planted trays were hung unto the Mounting Panels according to a predetermined design to take advantage of the plants to create bands of living colour. Anti-lift Arms inserted into the

VGP Tray hooks lock the trays to the panels, preventing inadvertent dislodgment of the VGP Trays.
Flexibility and ease of positioning trays to design requirements helped to turn an otherwise dull boundary wall into an attractive wall of living patterns.

VGM Green Wall
VGM modules pre-planted in a nursery environment were anchored onto pilasters installed on the front wall of the guardhouse and on a section of the perimeter fencing wall adjacent to the guardhouse turning them into living walls. The PE approved VGM system is certified to withstand wind uplift from various directions at 110km/h with no noticeable damage.

To provide the green wall system to erect green walls on four pillar walls at the pool deck of the condominium.

To provide the pedestal system to support granite pavers at children’s splash and play area.

VersiWall^® GP Green Wall

VGP Trays were mounted onto welded wire mesh secured onto four wall pillars of the shelter fronting the swimming pool at the pool deck for this project.

VGP Baffle Plates and Reservoir Covers were inserted into the individual trays on-site and planting of pre-selected plants for the wall were carried out in-situ. The desired flow and pattern of the living walls was easily achieved by hanging the planted trays onto the welded wire mesh according to the predetermined green wall design. To prevent inadvertent dislodgment of the VGP Trays from the wire mesh Anti-lift Arms were inserted into the VGP Tray hooks, locking the trays to the mesh.

The simplicity and ease of assembly of the system allowed the erection of the VGP green walls in minimal time.

VersiJack^®
VersiJack^® pedestals are easy to install and are height and slope adjustable to achieve a firm and level paver surface. Services – including the cabling and pump system for the water jets hidden below, remain readily accessible for maintenance when required. Spacer tabs were used on the pedestals to maintain uniform gaps between pavers that allow water from the fountain to freely drain away. The raised pavers also eliminate formation of efflorescence and algae growth on the pavers.

Ocean Way, Sentosa Cove, Singapore

To provide the system to establish a 62 sq m free-standing green wall stretching 17 m along the front of the Quayside Isle
To provide the systems to install 800 sq m of green roof on the twin roofs of the Quayside Isle

VGM® Green Wall
Vertical Greening Modules (VGM®), each containing a geotextile bag filled with EnviroMix® GW, a primarily inorganic soil-less lightweight planting media, were pre-planted in a controlled nursery environment. Pre-planting about 6 to 8 weeks prior to installation enabled selected plants to be firmly established and orientated vertically.
A free-standing metal framework constructed along the grass verge of the road running parallel to the Quayside Isle enabled pilaster rails to be bolted to anchor the VGM® modules. The visually attractive green wall forms a living curtain that keeps the goods delivery area and garbage disposal bay away from public view. The green wall also serves as a green banner to welcome patrons of the quayside attraction as well as W Hotel.

Extensive Green Roof
VersiDrain® 25P drainage and water retention trays were positioned in 15 tray panels installed in a staggered formation amongst solar panels of similar size to form the roof garden on the metal beams of the roof. A geotextile filter fabric was laid over the trays to enable EnviroMix to be placed for planting of Phyllanthus Myrtifolius, Portulaca, and Ophiopogon Jaboran, drought-tolerant plants.

Landscape Roof
VersiCell® sub-surface drainage modules were installed over the waterproofing membrane on five sections of concrete roof at the end of and in between the four sections of the twin roofs of the isle. 100mm of sand placed over a geotextile layer positioned over the drainage modules allowed planting soil to be added for Pedilanthus Tithymaloides Nana, Leucophyllum Frutescens and Scaevola Taccada to be planted.

Tanglin Road, Singapore

To provide the system to establish a green wall on the concrete wall at the end of the raised platform of the Alexandra Canal Linear Park

Vertical Greening Modules (VGM®) were bolted directly onto the concrete wall in a staggered design.

Each VGM module contains a geotextile bag filled with EnviroMix® GW, a primarily inorganic soil-less lightweight planting media. Two months pre-planting prior to installation enabled firm establishment and vertical orientation of the selected plants in the controlled environment of a nursery.

The completed installation created a wall of lush greenery beside the pedestrian walkway that runs parallel to the adjacent road, hiding the concrete wall that marks the end of the raised platform installed over the canal to create the Alexandra Canal Linear Park. The living wall helps the otherwise bare concrete wall to blend seamlessly into the green ambience of the park and is enjoyed by one and all.

Jalan Jambu Ayer, Singapore

To provide the Green Roof System to establish an extensive green roof on the metal rooftop of the car porch.

VersiCell® drainage modules were placed in between the raised ridges of the corrugated metal roof of the car porch to create a level surface for positioning of VersiDrain® 25P water retention and drainage trays. A geotextile filter fabric was then laid over the trays to allow lightweight EnviroMix® GR planting media to be placed on the trays for planting of selected drought-tolerant plants on the metal roof. A network of irrigation lines connected to a tap point was installed to enable easy irrigation of the plants on the roof when required.
Water retained in the individual cells of VersiDrain® 25P trays allow stored water to be delivered by capillary action to the planting media for irrigation of the plants during prolonged dry spells, helping to reduce irrigation frequency for the green roof and ensuring sustained healthy plant growth.

2003 Lorong 8 Toa Payoh, Singapore

To provide the system for extensive green roof installation on the metal rooftops of the Polyclinic.

VersiDrain® 25P drainage and water retention trays were installed over the metal rooftops over which a non-woven geotextile filter fabric was laid. This allowed a primarily inorganic planting media to be spread on top to enable planting. Ground cover plant species selected for their drought-tolerance and colour were used to create visually attractive patterns.

The green roofs turn the otherwise bare and glaring metal rooftops into a visually appealing green respite and become a source of therapeutic and healing stress relief for convalescing patients, visitors, and also the Polyclinic’s staff.

The living roofs form a sun screen that helps to shield and reduce heat absorption by the rooftops. This in turn helps to lower temperature within the polyclinic and ambient temperature of its immediate surroundings. Performing a role that benefits the wider environment, they also help to mitigate urban heat island effect.

100 Bukit Timah Road, Singapore

To provide the system for extensive green roof installation on the metal rooftops of the hospital’s new wards

About 4,400 sq m of VersiDrain® 25P drainage and water retention trays were installed over the metal plates that make up the rooftops of the new wards added as part of the hospital’s A&A works. A non-woven geotextile filter fabric was laid over the trays to allow a primarily inorganic planting media to be spread on top for drought-tolerant plants to be planted.

Different ground cover plant species were used to form attractive patterns.

The green roof converted the otherwise glaring metal roofs into a green respite for patients, visitors and hospital staff, creating calming and relaxing views.

The living roof also acts as a sun screen that helps to reduce heat absorption by the roof and lower internal temperature of the wards. This in turn lowers ambient temperature of the immediate surroundings and helps to mitigate urban heat island effect.

2 Simei Street 3, Singapore

To provide the system to establish a free-standing two-sided green wall beside the reception counters at the foyer of the hospital.

Vertical Greening Modules (VGMs) each contain a geotextile bag filled with EnviroMix® GW, a primarily inorganic soil-less lightweight planting media. To allow selected green wall plants to be orientated vertically and ensure firm establishment, the modules were pre-planted 6 to 8 weeks prior to installation.

VGM® modules were bolted to a free-standing metal framework which enabled pairs of adjacent vertical rows of VGM® modules to swing inwards or outwards like windows. This allows easy maintenance access to the VGM® modules mounted on both sides of the “window” frames. VGM® modules were deliberately spaced to form a non-monotonous pattern and existing natural light is supplemented by LED grow lights to ensure healthy plant growth.

The living wall is angled and position to form a sun screen at the naturally ventilated open foyer which houses the hospital’s reception.

1 Hospital Drive, Singapore

To provide the system to establish a 25 sq m free-standing green wall against the exterior wall of the Pharmacy between Blocks 4 and 5 of the Singapore General Hospital (SGH)

Anchoring pilasters of the VGM Green Wall system were bolted to free-standing metal pillars erected along 12 m of the wall of the Pharmacy fronting the courtyard. Vertical Greening Modules (VGM), each containing a geotextile bag filled with EnviroMix® GW, a primarily inorganic soil-less lightweight planting media, were pre-planted in a controlled nursery environment 2 months prior to installation. The pre-planting ensures firm establishment and also allows the selected plants to be orientated vertically.
The completed installation creates five 2.5 m high green wall panels running along the façade of the Pharmacy. The living wall provides a visually appealing, therapeutic and healing environment at the Courtyard enjoyed by recuperating patients and their visitors and also the hospital staff.
The mural of living plants acts as a sun screen that helps to lower ambient temperature at the Courtyard and also render the interior space of the Pharmacy comfortably cooler. In addition to achieving the design objectives to provide a cool and “green” retreat within the hospital grounds, the living wall also plays a part in environmental sustainability.
