Artificial green wall is a kind of wall greening method, which uses the super adaptive ability of plant roots to the growing environment, so that the plants living on the flat ground in nature can grow permanently on the vertical building wall, providing a new type of organic ecological material for architectural design and architectural decoration. There are many forms of artificial green walls, such as plant walls and simulated enclosure lawns.

 

The role of artificial green wall is many, mainly the following points:

 

Improve microclimate and alleviate urban heat island effect. Green walls can mitigate the urban heat island effect by blocking solar radiation, reducing ambient temperatures, acting as insulation for buildings, and altering the wind effect of buildings.

Reduce noise. The leaves and stems of green wall plants can rub sound waves, effectively reducing noise.

Improve air quality. Green walls can block road dust, filter air dust, absorb heavy metal particles in the air, and improve air quality.

Reduce stormwater runoff. Green walls can absorb some rainwater to reduce surface runoff and reduce the burden on urban drainage systems.

Increase urban biodiversity. Green walls can improve urban biodiversity by creating habitats, food sources, ecological corridors and nesting sites.

Improve visual comfort. Green walls can alleviate visual fatigue and improve people's quality of life.

Improve energy efficiency. Green walls can lower the temperature of a building and reduce energy consumption such as air conditioning.

Improve human mental health. Green plants release oxygen and negative ions, which can help relieve stress and improve mental health.

In addition, the artificial green wall has the characteristics of moisture-proof, mildew proof, acid and alkali resistance, no moth, no termites, no cracking, not easy to deformation, washable, non-toxic and odorless, and extremely durable, and its cost is low, and the cost is greatly reduced compared with the natural plant wall. Therefore, artificial green wall is an environmentally friendly, energy-saving and beautiful wall greening method, which can effectively improve the urban environment and improve people's quality of life.
