Putrajaya International Convention Centre – Putrajaya, Malaysia

To provide efficient drainage of excess subsoil water over the large intensive green roof area encircling the building.

VersiCell modules were interlocked into large panels and installed over the waterproofing membrane forming an immediate protective layer above the membrane. Geotextile was then laid over the VersiCell and planting soil positioned on top followed by planting of various colourful plant species arranged in attractive patterns. VersiCell provides the drainage cavity necessary to facilitate the efficient discharge of excess sub-soil water eliminating the need for a gravel course. The landscaped garden is beautiful and provides insulation against extreme temperatures for the building interior.

Singapore Flyer  – Marina Bay, Singapore

To provide efficient drainage of excess subsoil water from planter boxes on the top deck and perimeter rim and landscaped centre courtyard of the terminal building and the intensive green roof of the adjoining car park.

VersiCell modules interlocking both vertically and horizontally were positioned over the waterproofing membrane in both the open landscaped areas and the inner walls of the planter boxes and covered with geotextile. Planting media was positioned on the geotextile and turf and plant species installed. Gatherings and functions are held on the landscaped car park rooftop and the landscaped green areas of the terminal building are aesthetically pleasing and help to keep the building interior cool.

Marina Barrage – Marina Channel, Singapore

To provide efficient drainage and waterproofing membrane protection under 14,000 m² of turfed areas over the sloping roof of the Marina Barrage.

VersiCell lightweight interlocking modules were positioned directly onto the waterproofing membrane immediately forming an insulation layer protecting the membrane and then covered over with geotextile. Planting media was then positioned on the geotextile and turf installed. VersiCell’s lightweight structure, high compressive strength, rapid water capture and highly efficient drainage capability as well as its ability to be easily joined into large panels on site made it the ideal drainage module for the extensively large sloping roof of the Marina Barrage.

Orchard Central Mall – Singapore

To provide a modular green wall system to enable vertical greening of a series of 3 high walls totalling 160 m² and a section of the corridor on the 11th storey and 2 separate lower walls on the 12th storey totalling 45 m².

Anchoring pilasters were welded onto steel support beams installed onto the walls. VGMs, comprising a geotextile bag filled with soil-less lightweight planting media were pre-planted in a nursery environment to allow for plant establishment. The VGMs were encased in metal support frames on-site and mounted onto the pilasters and a drip irrigation system installed. This green wall system allows easy mounting and dismounting of individual VGMs for maintenance or replacement if necessary. The green walls complement and create the atmosphere for al fresco dining on the 2 uppermost floors of the Mall.
