Improved air quality
Vegetated structures, such as walls and facades, make a significant contribution to air purification by capturing fine particles and absorbing atmospheric pollutants. Plants filter volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other harmful substances from the air, improving the quality of life for city dwellers. What's more, plant photosynthesis produces oxygen, making the air fresher and healthier.

Thermal and acoustic insulation
Vegetated structures play an important role in the thermal insulation of buildings. In summer, they reduce the heat absorbed by walls by creating a natural barrier against the sun's rays, thus reducing energy consumption for air conditioning. In winter, they add an extra layer of insulation, helping to keep heat inside buildings. What's more, these structures attenuate external noise, providing better soundproofing and a quieter environment.

Aesthetics and space enhancement
Planted structures add a unique and pleasing aesthetic touch to urban environments. They transform gray, monotonous facades into lively, colorful surfaces, enhancing the visual appeal of buildings. This natural aesthetic also contributes to enhancing the value of public and private spaces, increasing their real estate value. Vegetated structures can also serve as landmarks and symbols of modernity and sustainability.

Promoting urban biodiversity
By integrating plants into built structures, vegetated structures create new habitats for urban wildlife, including birds, insects and small mammals. These vertical ecosystems promote biodiversity in urban environments, providing refuges and food sources for a variety of species. This increase in biodiversity contributes to the ecological balance and resilience of cities in the face of environmental change.

At TRACER, we're committed to maximizing these benefits through our innovative vertical planting solutions, creating greener, more sustainable and more livable urban spaces.
