Pioneer shop to install a living wall in Spain
Valladolid City Council and El Corte Inglés executed the first green façade in a large shopping centre, and this was possible thanks to the European URBAN GreenUP project.
The F+P system made it possible to plant 14,000 plants and 15 plant species that created an environmental zone and increased biodiversity in the heart of the city centre.
Valladolid became the first city in Spain to have a green façade in a large commercial establishment, with a total surface area of more than 350 square metres.
With the sale of the building and its subsequent demolition, the garden was dismantled for its subsequent relocation.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUDGET SYSTEM
Supply and installation of SingularGreen’s F+P vertical garden, consisting of 100% recycled and recyclable waterproof panel SG-P35, inert substrate SG-L40 with a density of 100kg/m3 fixed with A4 stainless steel screws, planting of 30 units/m2, personalized garden design, and species selection by a SingularGreen technician.
Installation of a watering system consisting of SG-R16 irrigation piping, SG-A24R irrigation centralization with automatic fertilizer dosing, and a GALCON GSI telecontrol and telemetering irrigation system with flow and electrical alerts by email. Includes programming, tuning, and alert monitoring by SingularGreen.
It does not include civil works (hole opening, preparation and filling, trenching for pipes, etc.), zone preparation works (leveling of vertical surfaces, pass-throughs, pavement modification, etc.), space for irrigation centralization (well, cabinet, etc.), upper and lateral finishes, telecontrol, perimeter encounters, connections to service points for water, electricity, and drainage, collection channel, or lifting devices.
The irrigation system should be protected from the weather and unauthorized access to ensure durability and prevent handling by unqualified persons. Water, electricity, and drainage points are assumed to be located near the work zone.
