Greenwalls offer a myriad of benefits in medical offices and hospitals, contributing significantly to both the physical and mental well-being of patients, staff, and visitors. Lush living vertical gardens act as natural air purifiers, absorbing pollutants and releasing oxygen, which can enhance indoor air quality and promote respiratory health, crucial in environments where cleanliness and hygiene are paramount. Additionally, the presence of greenery has been shown to reduce stress levels and anxiety, providing a calming and comforting atmosphere that aids in patient recovery and staff productivity. Moreover, green walls introduce biophilic elements into sterile medical settings, connecting individuals with nature and fostering a sense of rejuvenation and healing. Overall, integrating greenwalls into medical facilities not only improves the indoor environment but also promotes holistic healing and well-being.
Humanizing Medical Spaces
Bringing greenery into medical spaces offers the myriad benefits of biophilia. By introducing live plants, faux greenery, or preserved moss, you can create a soothing connection to nature that reduces stress, lowers blood pressure, and enhances cognitive function. Incorporating these elements transforms sterile environments into nurturing sanctuaries, promoting faster recovery and overall well-being for all.

Greenwall Benefits
Greenwalls have the power to provide a variety of benefits to patients, staff, and visitors in medical facilities through the known effects of biophilic design. Biophilia is the inherent human desire to be in nature. Bringing natural elements into spaces speeds healing, lowers blood pressure, and promotes calmness.
Promotes Healing
It has been again and again that interacting with being surrounded by plants speeds up healing times and improves optimism about health. Interaction with plants "suppress[es the] sympathetic nervous system activity and diastolic blood pressure and promot[es] comfortable, soothed, and natural feelings" (Lee, Ms., Lee, J., Park, BJ. et al.)
Improves Mental Health
Proximity to plants has been associated with improved mood and lower stress levels, benefitting inpatient living spaces. Biophilic design has many mental health benefits that are especially imperative in medical spaces, such as doctor's offices, waiting rooms, and hospitals.
Humanizes Spaces
Medical facilities can often feel sterile and unwelcoming. Natural elements promote calmness and create a more compassionate space that feels more personal and intentional. Hospitals, clinics, dentist offices, and other medical spaces are frequently places of anxiety. Biophilic design can help to easy some of these negative associations.

FAQs
How much maintenance is required for greenwall upkeep?
This depends on the the type of greenwall solution. GrowUp offers three types of greenwalls that offer different benefits to ensure we are able to meet a variety of needs.
Our living wall systems require some maintenance, as the living plants need water and light to flourish and keep your wall looking great. Our living wall systems make taking care of the plants easy, using automated watering systems that ensure your plants are given just the right amount of water. If you opt out of the automated system, watering is still easy as our drip systems only require you to add water to the top and allow the water to run down into all of the plants.
Our faux plant walls do not have any maintenance requirements other than the occasional dusting to keep the plants looking vibrant. These walls are great for tough-to-reach locations and outdoor environments with harsh climates.
GrowUp's moss walls are another maintenance-free solution that have no requirements post-installation. They are also great for indoor spaces that are not easily accessible.
What can I expect as the timeline for installation?
Do I need to have a landscape specialist to look after my wall?
Depending on the type of greenwall chosen, someone may need to be allocated to maintaining the greenwall. Only our living wall systems need maintenance that could be done by the resident landscaper or office manager.
