Archiphyte is ushering in a New Paradigm
in the field of Living Roofs and Living Walls with exciting new products.
The old systems are terrestrial or soil-based. Complicated and expensive layers of growth media and drainage systems
try to mimic the soils of the earth on the surface of a building. Archiphyte has developed and patented a new system
of living roofs and living walls that utilizes plants and other organisms that thrive without soil.
There exists in nature a curious group of plants called epiphytes. They live in the
forest canopy, disconnected from the ground. They derive moisture and nutrients
from the air. They require no soil. Moss, lichen, and vascular epiphytes grow on the surface of trees and rocks.
And they grow on the surface of buildings. Archiphyte's products are based
on epiphytic life forms.
Without soil our patented system:
Is simple and light in weight.
Can be installed on steep roofs.
Can be installed on walls.
They can even be wrapped around
a column or suspended in the air as a banner.
Have a unique look unattainable with terrestrial systems.
Is effective in stormwater management.
Archiphyte produces and sells living roof and living wall systems using epiphytic
life forms. We can recommend substrates and species for the specific construction
and microclimate for your project. Contact us for advice and prices for our
unique Living Roof and Living Wall systems.
