GSky Plant Systems Inc. has introduced the Versa Wall XT system, an exterior living wall alternative to pre-grown panels. Unlike the pre-planted panels most exterior green walls on the market rely on, each Versa Wall XT features one-gallon potted plants in trays, so full-grown plants can be swapped in with ease. This system can be a seasonal alternative in colder climates where plants can be removed for the winter or replaced entirely in the spring. The system installs with ease, including around architectural features like doors and windows.
Built on the same proprietary design as the indoor Versa Wall, the Versa Wall XT features a modular design for installation and maintenance ease, and it does not require wait time for growth like pre-grown walls do. With the Versa Wall XT, users can change out individual plants or exchange a whole wall of plants when seasons change. The Versa Wall XT is a green solution for shopping malls, corporate and academic campuses, hotels, airports, and more.
Featuring patented vertical irrigation technology, the Versa Wall XT system cuts water waste, prevents oversaturation, and boosts cost efficiency by automatically running a timed gravity-based irrigation cycle two to three times per week, while other walls on the market may run several cycles each day. Completely customizable with plants local to the installation site, the Versa Wall XT enlivens façades, cleans the air, shapes the acoustic environment, and combats the heat island effect in cities.
GSky and its dealer network design, install, and maintain all Versa Wall XT systems, giving customers creative control over a marquee feature that lasts. Clients include Proctor & Gamble, Vancouver’s Simon Frazier University, and Europe’s largest shopping center at Westfield Mall (London, UK). Its comprehensive maintenance program, with hardware coverage and plant guarantee, protects every Versa Wall XT with an experienced team of green wall professionals.
