Synchro is very pleased to be working with Nedlaw Living Walls to build Texas’ first “Aspirated” Living Wall. The Living Wall will be located in the main lobby of the Newpark Drilling Fluids new headquarters in Katy, Texas.
The Nedlaw “Aspirated” proto type living wall draws contaminated air through the hydroponic wall by use of the Natural Convection air movement created by the stack pressure of the living wall. Pollutants are broken down by the beneficial microbes associated with the plants. Clean air is returned to the occupied space as forest fresh outdoor air.
Nedlaw Living Walls improve the aesthetics and physical environment of the facilities in which they are installed. They also help the building owners improve the quality of the air for the occupants of their builds. Unlike other green walls which are mere plants on a vertical surface, the Nedlaw system is a “Biofilter” scientifically proven to clean air.
Nedlaw Living Walls is the result of over 14 years of research at the University of Guelph. They have installed over 150 Living Wall Biofilters across North America. Nedlaw provides complete services for the design, installation and maintenance of their patented Living Wall Biofilters. They are committed to the integration of biological systems into the built environment as a means of improving building sustainability and the well-being of their occupants. Located in Breslau, Ontario, Canada, Nedlaw is a world leader in delivering clean air, naturally.
