GreenTrellis

GreenTrellis is a modular trellis system adapted for partial and large-size greenings, especially on concrete walls. A horizontal bar combines the vertical cables and offers higher stability and easier installation. By adding horizontal bars, grids can be created according to the need of your project and the plant requirements. A security mechanism protects the cables and the carrying structure from overload from too much plant weight, wind, snow or other loads.

GreenTrellis is suitable for many types of climbing plants. It comes delivered as a set with all necessary parts for assembly.

Webnet

The stainless steel wire mesh Webnet is perfect for medium to large greening trellises. Its appealing design is matched by its efficiency. With the corresponding spacers and connecting parts, the net forms a modular system that can be easily and efficiently scaled to the size of your project. Cable diameter and mesh aperture are specially adapted to climbing plants and their typical loads on facades.

Webnet is a design solution for dense greening. It is especially interesting for architecturally interesting and functional greening. A dense covering with plants can absorb noise and pollution, combat the urban heat island effect by providing shadow and evaporative cooling while creating a habitat for insects.

Webnet Frames

Webnet Frames combine the advantages of Webnet for greening with ease of installation. Webnet Frames are stainless steel profiles with a pre-installed Webnet, making installation quick and easy. Standard sized Frames are cost-efficient and easy to use, while made to measure Frames fit perfectly to your needs. The Webnet cable diameter and mesh aperture is perfectly adopted to the needs of climbing plants.

By combining Webnet Frames with a plant pot, greening on walls or facades up to three meters are possible. Webnet Frames are perfect for creating smaller greening on individual spots and offer a wide range of design options.

Parametric Design

With this service, Jakob Rope Systems offers more possibilities for the design of trellis structures. The previously geometric shapes of the trellises are expanded to include more complex organic structures with variable depth. The key to this is parametric design, which is integrated into a digital planning process and subsequent production and assembly.

Shade roofs

Free-standing climbing structures made of ropes and stainless steel nets, on which climbing plants grow as rapidly developing greenery. With this concept, urban spaces can be attractively designed and shaded. The need for shade and cooling is growing in many urban spaces. Wherever there is a lack of trees in open spaces on summer days to provide protection from the sun and heat.

Shade roofs are a solution for making urban spaces more attractive. Jakob Rope System develops and implements studies and solutions for this purpose.
