Green Solutions
With more than 30 years of experience, Jakob can advise owners and designers on the use of cost-efficient, adaptable and beautiful trellising solutions that can provide passive environmental services and performance benefits. Jakob’s Green Solutions consist of three categories of products, each including components that can satisfy the varying needs of green facade projects according to their size, complexity and demands. These categories are: Modular greening systems, GreenKit Package, and Customized solutions.
Customized Greening Solutions
Jakob offers capable and comprehensive products and services to realize large scale green projects such as walls or skyscrapers, far exceeding the structural limitations of rigid, rectangular trellis panel or modular soil containment systems. Our stainless steel Webnet, cables and accessories are used in green facade projects across the globe due to their durability, strength and adaptability to most structural and climatic situations. Our experience and long-standing collaboration with landscape architects and green façade horticultural experts helps us to find the best greening concept for your project.
GreenGuide
GreenGuide stands for a light, flexible trellis system with appealing design possibilities. It is suitable for all types of climbers. The system is modular and can be adapted to the scale of your project. It offers very high-quality parts and much flexibility in design at very low costs. GreenGuide can be installed as a single cable or turned into a trellis of any size with the help of horizontal bars.
GreenTrellis
GreenTrellis is a simple, modular trellis system adapted for partial and large-size facades, especially on concrete walls. A horizontal bar anchors the vertical cables and offers higher stability and easier installation. A security mechanism protects the cables and the carrying structure from overload due to excessive plant weight, wind, snow or other loads.
Webnet
The stainless steel wire mesh Webnet is a uniquely ingenious product. Its efficient design is matched by its elegant simplicity, perfect for medium to large green façade trellises. With the corresponding spacers and connecting parts, the net forms a modular system that can be easily and efficiently scaled to the size of your project. A vegetated Webnet can provide the performance functions of a unique fractal screen, a green tapestry offering both aesthetic beauty, privacy and inobtrusive security.
GreenKit
GreenKit is a complete set of cables, spacers, and accessories for the creation of functional and beautiful green facades. GreenKit offers creative opportunities and elements for the creation of orthogonal green facades at low cost. The primary component hardware is made from marine grade stainless steel and includes HDPE spacers.
Webnet Frames
Webnet Frames combine the advantages of Webnet with ease of installation for façade greening. Webnet Frames are stainless steel profiles with a pre-installed Webnet, making trellis frames installation quick and easy. By combining Webnet Frames with appropriately-sized planters, installation of Webnet trellis frames on walls or facades up to three meters is possible.
