Jakob Rope Systems supplied products for two large-scale façade greenings with different concepts: on the front, an array of plant containers placed on each of the building’s levels creates a horizontal green surface. The other solution, on the back of the building, is a grid of criss-crossed wire ropes extending from the ground level via steel staircases to the roof edge. They support a green curtain, resulting in an additional façade.
