INSTALLATION
The EFIX system can be installed on these surfaces
The green facade can be installed on all structurally sound facades with a load-bearing capacity of 50 kg per m². From concrete, brick, wood to steel. Even some sandwichpanels are suitable.
Grow panels
The green facade is constructed with grow panels. These grow panels consist of a basket made of galvanised steel wire. The steel contains an epoxy powder coating and an envelope with HDPE film. The stone wool substrate in the basket serves as a moisture and nutrient medium for the plants.
Panel sizes
The panels are installed in a vertical suspension construction made of high-quality Magnelis steel.
Height =
1000 mm 875 mm
750 mm 625 mm
500 mm 375 mm
Width =

300 mm
(The panels can be custom-made)
Irrigation system for green facades
A fully automatic irrigation system provides the right levels of moisture for the green facade. From a basic standalone system to an advanced web-based system with options such as moisture and temperature sensors.
A network of invisible pressure-compensated pipes provides uniform distribution of nutrients and moisture.
PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION OF THE EFIX-SYSTEM
Preparation for installation is necessary before the system can be attached to the facade. For example, the irrigation system that needs to be installed on the facade. The drippers need to be connected to the water supply and the water outlet connected to the gutters. The irrigation system can then be connected to the water network.

A green facade helps reduce noise from outside. The plants have a sound-insulating effect due to their irregular shapes. They absorb sound vibrations and reflect sound waves in different directions.
The green facade acts as a buffer against heat penetration and therefore compensates for temperature fluctuations from outside. The building therefore remains cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
A green facade helps reduce CO2 concentrations in the air. The plants on the facade absorb the CO2 and convert it into glucose and oxygen, which improves the air quality.
The green facade is a habitat for various animal species such as birds, butterflies, bees and other insects. These animals can live, eat and nest on the facade, which contributes to local biodiversity in urban areas. Read more about biodiversity.
