GoRespyré's Lightweight (Insulated) Panels are cutting-edge facade solutions that combine the structural benefits of lightweight materials with the ecological advantages of moss integration. These panels are designed for ease of installation, reducing construction time and costs. The incorporation of moss not only enhances the visual appeal but also contributes to improved air quality and thermal regulation. Suitable for both new constructions and renovations, these panels support sustainable building practices by lowering energy consumption and promoting biodiversity.

Respyre’s moss facades, known as VertiScape™, are an innovative solution for sustainable urban development. These facades utilize bioreceptive concrete combined with a specialized moss gel to transform ordinary walls into living, green structures.

Key Characteristics:

• Bioreceptive Concrete: Made from 85–95% recycled materials, this concrete has enhanced porosity and a textured surface, creating an optimal environment for moss growth. 

• Moss Gel Application: A bio-enhancing gel containing moss spores is applied, facilitating quick and controlled moss development.

• Self-Sustaining Growth: After an initial growth period of approximately 12 weeks, the moss becomes self-sustaining, requiring minimal maintenance. 

• Non-Invasive Attachment: Moss attaches using rhizoids, which do not damage the underlying structure, preserving the integrity of the building.

Environmental Benefits:

• Air Purification: Moss absorbs pollutants such as CO₂, NOx, and particulate matter, improving air quality in urban environments.

• Urban Cooling: Through evapotranspiration and shading, moss facades can reduce surface temperatures, mitigating the urban heat island effect. 

• Water Management: The moss layer retains rainwater, reducing runoff and easing the burden on urban drainage systems.

• Biodiversity Enhancement: Moss-covered surfaces provide habitats for insects and other small organisms, supporting urban biodiversity.

• Carbon Sequestration: Over time, the facades absorb CO₂, converting it into calcium carbonate, contributing to carbon neutrality. 

• Aesthetic Appeal: The green facades offer a visually pleasing alternative to traditional concrete walls, enhancing the urban landscape
