These vertical gardens replicate more accurately the plant-soil relationships in nature and are much more stable than blanket / geotextile systems.

THINK CLEVER IRRIGATION AND FERTILISATION
STATE-OF-THE-ART IN VERTICAL SYSTEMS
Urban life has distanced us from the natural environment and the contact with nature has been relegated to occasional situations. Small urban spaces, pollution and lack of time make it difficult for many people to enjoy nature at its best. The Minigarden® vertical system was developed considering these dynamics. This revolutionary system allows the creation of green walls or vertical gardens, interior or exterior, adaptable to any building surface and small or large spaces. Minigarden® is an effective solution for a wide range of professional projects that require an efficient and beautiful solution, no matter the type of environment, size, outdoors or indoors. With unique characteristics, these green walls or vertical gardens are modular, adaptable and of reliable maintenance. No other solution offers such potential for the design of landscaping projects. In addition, the Minigarden® green walls are easy and quick to install in few hours, have guaranteed maintenance and their price is very competitive compared to other green wall construction systems. We have the perfect vertical solution for your company and business.
THINK DESIGN AND MODULARITY The Minigarden® Vertical System is a modular system that allows to “vertically” grow ornamental, aromatic and vegetable plants and herbs. Our system is freestanding, self-draining and can be installed indoors or outdoors, offering growing conditions to a very wide range of plants.

MINIGARDEN PROFESSIONALS CATALOGUE
Its modularity allows you to design and install vertical gardens of any dimension very easily, leaving full room for your creativity. Minigarden® Vertical System consists of 3 types of modules: Minigarden Vertical
Minigarden Corner
Minigarden One
Minigarden® Vertical System can be very easily installed in indoors or outdoors, embedded in or attached to any type of walls or gables. The assembly is very simple and intuitive. Its modular features allow you to stack it, both vertically and horizontally, in a single row or back-to-back, creating countless combinations.

The ways in which Minigarden systems are combined are only limited by your imagination. Besides its modular features, you can also play with different plants and colours (1).

The system’s simplicity enables an easy, systematic assembly, from the floor up, or from any height. For this, it requires a wall mount support at the base. Whenever needed, modules can be secured to a wall or substructure. This can be done using stainless steel M6 screws (Ø 6 mm) placed through the round clips (Ø 7mm orifice) of each module or using Minigarden Fixers.

THINK CLEVER WATERING AND FERTILISATION The Minigarden vertical gardening system comes with an innovative gravity drainage mechanism. In case the growing media becomes saturated due to excess water (from rain or watering), this one-of-a-kind system allows for independent drainage, from each module to the base tray at the bottom of the structure.
Each plant is individually watered through the Minigarden’s DRIP WATERING SYSTEM
MINIGARDEN PROFESSIONALS CATALOGUE 15
We developed a drip watering system to ensure that each plant is watered individually, using a 6.5mm diameter tube with drippers spaced every 22cm. This watering tube is placed inside each module and through the round clips connecting the modules. The watering system was also thought out to allow fertigation. For this, it’s only necessary to add a liquid fertilizer dispenser. This 100% automatized system enables a fertilization and watering process with maximum precision.

MINIGARDEN PROFESSIONALS CATALOGUE
This Minigarden green wall carries around 1100 plants. One of the interesting points of this project is that throughout its 7 years of existence only a few dozens of plants have been replaced. Quite a remarkable achievement, not an isolated case but very much the standard. Our vertical system is a platform, a system of excellence for plant growing. Amazing, right?

DESCRIPTION An exquisite selection of exotic plants created this gate into the “jungle” within a private house with a total of 60 square meters of green wall and 30 square meters of an interior patio. The Minigarden system was selected for being a proven long-lasting technology. After 2 months of its installation and over 1,000 plants fitted to the wall, a record of only 3 plants showed difficulty in adapting and needed to be replaced. www.garden-central.mx

BENEFITS FOR A BETTER FUTURE
THE MINIGARDEN ® COMBINES GREAT DESIGN SCOPE WITH A NUMBER OF ECOLOGICAL AND PERFORMANCE BENEFITS: IMPROVES AESTHETICS AND QUALIFIES AREAS
IMPROVE AIR QUALITY AND REDUCE CARBON DIOXIDE
A well designed and maintained vertical garden can significantly enhance a building’s appearance – whether it’s to add a new aesthetic dimension, disguise a car park, refresh a facade or add colour and texture to a wall or section.
A vertical garden in an urban area helps improve local air quality, both by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen, and by trapping dust and absorbing pollutants.
REGULATE TEMPERATURE
INCREASING BIODIVERSITY
PROTECT BUILDING FACADES
A vertical garden used on appropriate elevations can reduce energy costs by both providing an additional layer of insulation in the winter (keeping heat in) and acting as a screen to the sun in the summer (keeping the building cool).
With a strong base from the trellis and appropriate planting, a vertical garden can provide an ideal habitat for birds and beneficial insects. In many cases, it can also provide an alternative habitat for any wildlife displaced during construction, with the option of integrating bird houses within the structure.
The Minigarden system protects a building’s facade from the elements, acting as an effective shield to heavy rain and hail and helping to protect from the damaging effects of UV light.
FOOD SAFETY
POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECT
URBAN FARMING
The Minigarden® Vertical material is suitable for direct contact with food. It is widely used in the food industry and it complies with the European regulations (EU Nº 10/2011) on plastic materials intended to come into contact with food.
Outdoor or indoor vertical gardens applications give us a close contact with plants, through visual contact or smell, creating a very pleasant psychological effect.
The Minigarden Vertical system is also being used for growing food in urban settings, creating sustainable and local control of food sources.
REDUCE NOISE AND EFFECTS OF ECHO The Minigarden vertical garden system works as an insulation layer (both thermal and acoustic), offering an extraordinary effect of sound absorption and capture.
