Living Wall (Internal)

An interior living wall — vertical planting on an irrigated system for biophilic, wellbeing and acoustic benefit. A striking feature, but an honest one: the frame, growing media, continuous irrigation and (often) supplementary grow-lighting mean it is not a carbon saving.

Living Wall (Internal)

Carbon and evidence

Carbon Sink & Ecosystem Services

A living landscape element — a carbon sink and provider of ecosystem services, not a manufactured product. Its value is measured by sequestration and biodiversity, not embodied carbon, and it must never be netted against a product’s A1–A3.

Carbon Sequestration

Not sequestration-led

The primary value here is biodiversity and/or water function, not carbon storage.

Biodiversity Net Gain

Interior element — no Biodiversity Net Gain value applies.

Establishment & Maintenance

aluminium/steel frame, growing media, continuous irrigation and (often) grow-lighting carry significant embodied and operational carbon

Read This Honestly

  • Not a carbon saving — the support system, irrigation and any grow-lighting outweigh the plants indoors.
  • High maintenance and water/energy dependency; specify for wellbeing and amenity, not carbon.
