AS-GREEN SLOPE represents a systematic solution for stabilisation of various types of slopes using the vegetation bags.
The vegetation bags are sewn of especially breathable fabric, which enables that are easily penetrable by plant roots but, at the same time, not structurally impaired. In this way, greenery not only keeps its aesthetic purpose, but it also functions as an element improving the local microclimate. In systematic terms, the product is also used in solutions for water stream revitalisations. The bag breathable properties support the interactions between the riverbed and its neighbourhood – contributing to the groundwater replenishment. If larger slope structures are to be reinforced, the product utilisation minimises the necessity of draining system installations and – at the same time – water is brought to planted vegetation roots.
In order to bridge differences in heights or to achieve slope stabilization, concrete blocks and/or bricked structures are currently used; however, they are not always ideal due to their high volume weight, minimum water permeability or noise propagation. AS-GREEN SLOPE vegetation bags represent a unique alternative to these conventional solutions.
The system is suitable for both do-it-yourself domestic projects like garden modifications as well as large-scale commercial applications such as slope stabilisations, water stream revitalisation, and creation of foundation slabs or participation in environmental developments.
Vegetation walls offer a huge number of potential architectural solutions. Due to their flexible structure and design in two sizes, even complex slope shapes pose no problems. Depending on a slope size and gradient, the slope stability can be provided by geo-textiles anchored to the existing slope surface.
AS-GREEN SLOPE vegetation bags, as well as other components are stabilised against UV radiation and the solution guaranteed lifetime is at least 50 years. Under standard conditions, the maintenance of the vegetation walls consists of grass or vegetation cutting. In doing this, it will be necessary to proceed with care and not to damage the bags mechanically, particularly by hedge cutters. In case of complete rupture of a bag, its removal and replacement with a new one will be possible.
Many projects and construction solutions are increasingly focused to the parameters concocted with climate changes and carbon footprint reduction. Depending on chosen vegetation types, the properties of the AS-GREEN SLOPE system makes possible to achieve carbon footprint negative values, namely due to:
According to the developer’s requirements we will prepare:
Geotextile for its placement among several layers of AS-GREEN SLOPE bags and improved stabilisation in larger/steeper slopes. The material is supplied in lengths and strength as needed.
