FAQs
The Living Wall Sustainability Workshop is a hands-on green team building event where employees collaborate in teams, planting and arranging a selection of plants onto a living wall installation. Participants will learn about how living walls work and their benefits on the environment and wellbeing while engaging in fun team building challenges.
A living wall, also known as a green wall or vertical garden, is a structure or frame where plants grow vertically. They use a clever irrigation system that needs little maintenance and works without electricity or a water supply. Living walls come in all shapes and sizes, made up of various plants for indoors or outdoors installation. For offices, living walls offer a creative solution to bring the beauty of nature indoors, revitalising even the smallest and most mundane spaces.
The Living Wall Sustainability Workshop offers teams a unique opportunity to engage in a hands-on green activity while fostering teamwork and a more positive work culture.

By installing a living wall in your office, you enhance the aesthetic appeal of your workspace and improve air quality, as plants act as natural filters, trapping pollution particles.
