WPCコーポレーション株式会社　GIF-T/壁面緑化の課題と難しさ


	Landscape and building materials manufacture of Wood plastics composites and Green wall.

Green Insulated Foam Tile "gif-T" is made from totally a new concept which directly contains plant within its tile body.
GIF-T share superior characteristics in durability.construction-easiness,cost performance,safety,design and maintenance.

Roof-greening has been attention as an effective measure for urban greening.If only we could do the same for wallswhich represent several times the area of rooftops...
In promoting urban greening.and with a desire to provide building structures that are friendly to people.cities and the environment.we came up with the idea of a 'plantable exterior wall material'.The Green Insulating Foam Tile 'GIF-T' is the revolutionary answer to the increasingly desirable and necessary task of wall surface greening.

Outlook of Greening of building from a city urban renewal perspective (Development Bank of Japan)

Created from various documents

※Greening of Building is a viable method as can be seen by the various advantages above that can be offered in areas with limited space

Wall greening can be applied to almost all building greening

The media wall of the biolung displayed at the Aiche Expo was announced in the Chunichi Newspaper to be 7-9℃ cooler than the surroundings. Ways to maintain the wall are expected to be announced soon (Ministry of Infrastructure,Land and transportation)

1. Crude planter base technology

Heavy and thick, making handling and installation difficult
Flammable, meaning they are not suitable for building wall surfaces
Planter soil dropping to the ground

2. Crude irrigation controls

Difficult waste water piping leading to plant decay and root rot
Difficult irrigation piping leading to plant decay and dehydration during dry weather

3. High maintenance

Gradual plant decay due to the lack of fertilizer
Plant decay due to the superior growth of weeds

We were first in the world to successfully commercialize wall surface greening methods using ceramics techniques and planting methods that have been developed over more than 100 years.
