GSky has installed its green wall at O’Hare airport as part of the Fly Green Chicago Exhibit, launched by the Chicago Department of Aviation to showcase its green initiatives at both O’Hare and Midway International Airports.
GSky Plant Systems president Chad Sichello said: "As airport facilities work toward reducing our environmental impact, green walls are fantastic displays that represent an airport’s commitment to green initiatives."
The green wall technology is built on GSky’s Versa Wall system, which employs 4in industry standard pots that can be placed directly into a tray to ensure instant plant coverage, offering flexible deployment options and with various plant selections.
The Versa Wall comes with re-circulating irrigation system and is eco-friendly, customisable, durable and economical, claims GSky.
