SOTECH AND VERTICAL MEADOW INTRODUCE A ‘LIVING WALL’ FACADE FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE
Leading rainscreen manufacturer Sotech has partnered with leading urban biodiversity company Vertical Meadow to introduce an innovative ‘living wall’ rainscreen cladding solution designed to enhance urban environments and bring back wildlife to our densely populated cities.
‘Optima Meadow’, the groundbreaking new rainscreen system spearheaded by Vertical Meadow founder Alistair Law, provides a biodiverse, attractive and sustainable approach to urban greening by integrating plant life directly into vertical building façades.
Using the Optima Meadow product provides a creative way to meet the new requirements of Environment Act 2021, through which the UK government introduced a mandatory biodiversity net gain obligation. This new obligation became effective from February 2024.
