In today's era of pursuing high - quality living and working environments, vertical gardens have become a popular choice for space beautification and environmental improvement. Especially in commercial places like shopping malls, vertical gardens can not only enhance the environmental quality but also have many positive impacts on business operations. Today, we will delve into the differences between traditional vertical gardens and new - type vertical gardens (Auma vertical garden substrate blocks as an example), as well as the application value of new - type vertical gardens in shopping malls.
Comparison Items | Traditional Vertical Gardens | New - type Vertical Gardens (Auma Vertical Garden Substrate Blocks) |
Installation Convenience | The installation is relatively complex. Each panel needs to be assembled and spliced, which is a time - consuming process. Professional personnel are required to spend a great deal of time and energy on the operation. Moreover, various tools and equipment may be needed during installation, increasing the difficulty and cost of installation. | Adopting integral forming technology, the substrate blocks can be firmly fixed to the keel framework directly. The operation is simple and easy to understand. Without complex assembly and splicing steps, the installation cycle is greatly shortened. Even non - professional personnel can quickly get started with installation under simple guidance. |
Portability | The whole is relatively bulky. After installation, the thickness is generally more than 25 cm. Such thickness and weight require a large amount of manpower and material resources for transportation and handling, and also have certain requirements for transportation tools and sites. At the same time, after installation, it has extremely high requirements for the load - bearing capacity of the wall and the keel. It may be necessary to carry out additional reinforcement of the building structure, increasing the construction cost and safety risks. | The volume is small and the thickness is only 5 cm, and it is relatively light in weight. During transportation, it occupies little space, facilitating handling and storage, and reducing transportation costs and difficulties. And due to its light weight, there is no need to worry about the load - bearing problems of the wall and the keel. It can be widely applied to various building structures, whether it is a new - built building or a renovation of an existing building, it can be easily adapted, providing great convenience for users. |
Environmental Friendliness | Mostly plastic products are used. During long - term use, these plastic products will gradually age and release harmful chemical substances, causing potential harm to the environment and human health. Moreover, plastic is difficult to degrade, and it will become an environmental burden after being discarded, which does not conform to the concept of sustainable development. | Made of natural agricultural and forestry materials, the main components include coconut coir, humus soil, peat soil, pond sludge, pine scales and other agricultural and forestry waste. These natural materials are green, environmentally friendly, safe and harmless. During production and use, no harmful substances will be generated, and after being discarded, it can degrade naturally and return to nature, truly achieving ecological environmental protection and providing a guarantee for creating a green and healthy space. |
Water - retention Capacity | The water - retention capacity is poor, and frequent watering is required to maintain the water needed for plant growth. To assist with water absorption, it usually needs to rely on water - absorbing media, such as using cotton ropes for water absorption. However, even so, the effect of water retention is still not ideal. This not only increases the workload and cost of maintenance, but also easily leads to poor plant growth due to improper water management, affecting the overall effect of the vertical garden. | The water - retention capacity is excellent. The substrate block itself is equivalent to an efficient water - retaining medium. It can store a large amount of water and slowly release it according to the growth needs of plants, greatly reducing the frequency of watering. Even in a relatively dry environment, it can provide a stable water supply for plants for a long time, reducing the difficulty of maintenance, creating a good growth environment for plants, and ensuring that the vertical garden always maintains a vibrant state. |
Air Permeability | Mostly soil is used as the planting substrate. However, after long - term use, due to the growth of plant roots and human trampling and other factors, the soil is likely to become compacted. When the soil is compacted, the air permeability becomes very poor, causing the plant roots to be unable to breathe normally, affecting the plant's absorption of nutrients, and thus hindering the healthy growth of plants. In severe cases, it may even lead to plant death. | The air permeability is excellent. Its unique structural design allows air to circulate freely. Since soil is not used for planting, the problem of soil compaction is fundamentally avoided, creating an excellent breathing environment for plant roots. Plant roots can fully breathe in such an environment, better absorb nutrients, and thus thrive, ensuring the long - term beauty and ecological benefits of the vertical garden. |
In the commercial space of a shopping mall, the shopping experience of customers is of great importance. The new - type vertical garden, with its flexible and changeable design and rich plant - matching schemes, can create a unique shopping atmosphere for the shopping mall.
Imagine that when customers step into the shopping mall, what catches their eyes is a lush and uniquely - shaped vertical garden. This vertical garden may be located in the atrium of the shopping mall, designed in a waterfall - like style pouring down from a high place, matched with colorful flowers and various green plants, forming a beautiful scenery line. Or, on both sides of the main passage of the shopping mall, the vertical garden presents a simple and modern style. The neatly arranged plants complement the surrounding fashion stores, bringing customers a fresh and natural feeling.
The advantage of [Brand Name] vertical garden substrate blocks lies in their installation convenience and flexibility. The shape and plant matching of the vertical garden can be customized according to the overall style and positioning of the shopping mall. For high - end fashion shopping malls, some rare flowers and beautifully - shaped green plants are selected, matched with exquisite planting modules, to create a luxurious and stylish vertical garden landscape, strengthening the high - end image of the shopping mall; for shopping malls with regional cultural characteristics, local characteristic plants are selected, and the shape of the vertical garden is designed in combination with traditional architectural elements, allowing customers to feel a strong regional cultural atmosphere while shopping.
Such a unique vertical garden landscape can not only attract the attention of customers, make them stop and stay in the shopping mall, but also bring customers a pleasant shopping mood. Research shows that when shopping in an environment full of natural elements, customers' stay time will be extended and their consumption willingness will be enhanced. The new - type vertical garden is like a green business card of the shopping mall, attracting more customers and increasing the passenger flow and popularity of the shopping mall.
In shopping malls, there are dense crowds and relatively poor air circulation, which leads to a decline in air quality. Problems such as increased carbon dioxide concentration, accumulation of odors and harmful gases not only affect the shopping experience of customers, but may also pose a threat to the health of customers and merchants.
The new - type vertical garden plays an important role in air purification. The plants in the vertical garden absorb carbon dioxide in the air through photosynthesis and release oxygen, providing fresh air for the shopping mall. At the same time, plants can also adsorb dust, particulate matter and harmful gases in the air, such as formaldehyde and benzene. The natural agricultural and forestry materials used in [Brand Name] vertical garden substrate blocks themselves have a certain ability to adsorb and decompose harmful substances, working in concert with plants to greatly enhance the air purification effect.
In the beauty and dining areas of the shopping mall, odors and volatile organic compounds are relatively common. After the installation of the new - type vertical garden, the air quality in these areas has been significantly improved. The new - type vertical garden is like a large - scale air purifier, continuously providing fresh and healthy air for the shopping mall, allowing customers to breathe freely during shopping and enjoy a comfortable shopping environment.
There are various sources of noise in shopping malls, including the noise of customers, the promotional sounds of stores, the operation sounds of equipment, and the traffic noise from outside. These noises can interfere with the shopping mood of customers, affect their choice and judgment of goods, and may even cause customers to leave the shopping mall early.
The new - type vertical garden has excellent noise - reducing functions. The special structure of its substrate blocks and the branches and leaves of plants can absorb, reflect and scatter sound waves. When external noise enters the shopping mall, it will first encounter the obstruction of the vertical garden. The multi - layer composite structure and special sound - absorbing materials inside the substrate blocks will absorb part of the sound wave energy like a sponge, and the branches and leaves of plants will further scatter and reflect the sound waves, effectively reducing the propagation of noise.
In some shopping malls close to traffic arteries, after the installation of the new - type vertical garden, the noise reduction effect is very obvious.
