How long does a green wall last?
Since 2008, TRACER has been designing and installing green walls for buildings throughout France and abroad. Thanks to the constant evolution of our techniques, notably with the award in 2016 of the CSTB Vertiflore technical opinion, these structures offer a sustainable solution for integrating nature into urban environments.
Ten-year warranty: a guarantee of solidity
The durability of a green wall depends largely on the quality of its structure. TRACER offers a 10-year guarantee on the solidity of its systems, ensuring not only their longevity, but also the safety of the buildings into which they are integrated. This ten-year guarantee covers the structure of the wall, confirming the robustness of our installations.
Maintenance: the key to longevity
A well-designed green wall requires regular maintenance to ensure its longevity. At TRACER, we offer an in-house maintenance service to monitor the progress of each project. Maintenance helps to maintain plant vitality, keep irrigation systems running smoothly and prevent ecological imbalances.
The importance of this maintenance is reflected in the ability of a green wall to remain functional and aesthetically pleasing for several decades. For more information on our maintenance services, visit our dedicated page here.
Example in practice: Green wall at CLAY SOUILLY shopping center
The green wall installed at the CLAY SOUILLY shopping center in Seine-et-Marne is a prime example of the longevity of walls designed by TRACER. Installed in 2011, the wall continues to be regularly maintained and remains in excellent condition.
Photographs taken in 2012, 2015, 2020 and 2024 show the evolution of the wall over the years, illustrating how proper and constant maintenance preserves the structure's aesthetics and functionality.
Conclusion: Ensuring the longevity of green walls
The lifespan of a green wall depends on several factors: the quality of the design, the sturdiness of the structure, and regular maintenance. With a ten-year guarantee and a dedicated maintenance service, TRACER ensures that its green walls remain effective and aesthetically pleasing over the long term.
