ClimbingBASE gains structural system certification: greater planning certainty for climbing plant façades
An important milestone for Vertiko: our stainless steel climbing trellis, ClimbingBASE, now comes with a certified structural system. This provides a reliable basis for planning and structurally integrating climbing greenery in demanding construction projects.
After all, climbing greenery needs to do more than look good. For it to perform reliably over the long term, it also needs a safe, well-engineered construction. The new structural system makes it easier for planners to integrate ClimbingBASE and provides greater certainty in both design and execution.
At the same time, ClimbingBASE has been substantially enhanced. The result is a flexible climbing trellis system that accommodates varying requirements for load transfer, plant support and installation.
Key enhancements at a glance:
Structural system for greater planning certainty
ClimbingBASE now comes with a reliable structural basis. This simplifies planning and supports the safe integration of the climbing trellis into demanding projects.
Optimised trellis geometry for higher load capacity
The folded trellis geometry allows for higher load capacity while also improving plant grip on the structure.
Greater flexibility in load transfer
ClimbingBASE can be anchored directly into the ground via point foundations. Alternatively, a wall-mounted version with load transfer via brackets is also available. This allows the climbing trellis to be adapted more flexibly to different structural situations.
Stainless steel construction for lasting solutions
ClimbingBASE is made from stainless steel and designed for durable, functional performance. Fire protection requirements can also be factored into the planning process.
An important step forward for planning climbing greenery
With its structural system certification and constructional enhancements, ClimbingBASE now offers even greater safety and flexibility for planning. We’re pleased to take this further step towards reliably integrating climbing greenery into architecture.
