Greensol deals with the garden design and building.

The garden design has to interpret customer’s demand and has to integrate harmonically the place with its history. It has to respect precise rules that involve the knowledge of the features of each essence which is being used, and to take care of forms and colours. Designing means to be able to balance the whole exact proportions in a charming and unique environment. The beauty of a garden is not only linked with at “Half an Eye”, but also with a complete balance in space and time. It has to reflect the harmony that everyone strives when desires to live one’s own green space.

Whoever consults Greensol does not look for an ordinary gardener. Our business is addressed to a customer who is aware that a garden is not simply an outer space of the house but it is a place where to live in full and with pleasure during a large part of the year. So it must be “furnished” with the same care as an inner space. Our taste and style transform your outer spaces into real drawing rooms in the open air, thanks to the employment of furnishings and of a design that will enrich your garden in an inimitable style.

Entrusting your garden with Greensol means to invest your money. Indeed, a satisfactory and well-planned design increases the value of your property. In this way, the choice of a technical staff not only transforms your outer space into a pleasant and unique one, but also into a real and solid economic profit.

"You can say that the garden, either public or private, is still today the link between the man and the nature: that is an intermediate state between the natural, spontaneous aspect of the earth-world and the human creation. That is to say a tame nature (or its parts, elements)."

Greensol realizes a maintenance service both usual and special of your green spaces. The maintenance has an essential relevance to obtain and especially to preserve the scenic effects conceived during the design of a garden. It is only the gardener’s practised hand that can help the origin and the growth of plants.

The experience that Greensol puts at customer’s disposal, demonstrates that taking care of plants does not mean only to look on their aesthetic function. For this reason, a particular attention is directed towards the pruning of ornamental trees. Our constant professional training, let us work in your plants in the most respectable way we can, by reducing shear operations to a minimum.

The targeted and aware reduction of head and the removal of dead parts facilitate an ideal development of plant, and produce the correlated origin of new wood in its weak parts. The new wood saves the tree from important hurts like the break of brunches and guarantees at the same time the required security of the plant in defence of people's safety.


Greensol realizes:

• Maintenance programs of lawn (mowing-fertilization-weeding-parasticidal treatments).
• Pruning of long-stemmed plants.
• Clipping of hedges.
• Pruning of shrubs.
• Phytopathological advice and parasticidal programs.

Water plays an essential role in living of all vegetal structures and takes part in the physical-chemical processes of solution, exchange and conservation that are on the basis of their feeding in general. The mayor purpose of an irrigation system is to add to the land the water it leaks during the vaporization and percolation.

Such compensation is absolutely essential when you want to preserve the exact water balance, which is vital for the life of plants, for obtaining fundamental nourishment from the same land.

Greensol plans and builds automated irrigation systems for gardens and terraces by guaranteeing a perfect distribution of water to preserve and to increase your green area to the maximum. Our business ideology makes us aware of water is a precious good and so our equipments permit a right direction of it with a distribution when and where it is needed, by reducing to the minimum superfluous and expensive wastes.

Thanks to the constant professional training and to the will to preserve more and more advanced solutions and to the sensitivity towards the environment, Greensol now offers to its customers the designing, realization and maintenance of roof gardens service.
Greensol uses the Zinco®’s technology distributed in Italy by the Harpo- Seic, that is our partner in projecting and supplying all needed materials, from the impermeability to the provision of feeding substratum.

There is not a nowadays fashion, but an efficient solution that has already adopted in the past. From the old Babylonia to the present days in Northern and Alpine countries, it is used to cover the roofs with sods for preserving the snow over the roof with the advantage to prevent the slip on the ground and to obtain a certain grade of heat insulation. Covering with plants roofs, it allows of great ecological, economic and building benefits.

A part from the aesthetic effect, the advantages are multiple also from the psychophysical, economic and ecological point of view. Who observes the vegetal walls feels a prompt sense of well-being and delight. According to the chromotherapy, the green colour relaxes and reduces stress. The fact that it is a living green it is an extra element for relaxing the cerebration: the closeness with the nature makes people more calm and less conflictual.

The right choice in vegetal breeds enables to construct vertical gardens for our houses both outdoor and indoor. It makes these structures an excellent solution either for the covering of building faces or for a superb and revolutionary complement in furnishings of our living-rooms.

From a functional point of view, the vegetal wall has much in common with what is described in the Roof Gardens section, in fact also in this case it does:

• The conservation of walls by protecting the covering plaster from the atmospheric agents and from the break up of freezing and thawing;
• The reduction in sheeting for the temperature dilation because of the reduction of the range of temperature to which are subjected the external building courses;
• An insulating function with a considerable energy conservation.

By 2009 Greensol intends to bring the green everywhere its customers will ask for. The development of new ideas in furnishings for microhabitat and indoor areas, induces Greensol to the experimentation of original styles. These in practise express theirselves in a functional symbiosis among small green areas located in the most unimaginable corners of your house, of your offices or of every kind of indoor areas that you have. Being convinced that plants have not only an aesthetic function, but they are considered like the main way towards a tolerable life, Greensol increases the variety of services offered. In addition to the design and realization of roof and vertical gardens, it offers also the furnishing of indoor spaces, with a targeted and well- thought introduction of houseplants in them.

A green furniture transforms your spaces into more pleasant and also more agreeable ones. There are a lot of advantages that this kind of service can offer. Plants in a working environment or in indoor places are able to:

• Bringing the consumer on the market.

The package of psychophysical and economical advantages described above, portrays Greensol service (INDOOR GREEN) like a primary good for all the companies that underline the humanity as one of their fundamental resources.

Why

One of the insidious and harmful polluting forms is that one appears among walls of an indoor space. The content of oxygen decreases dangerously in all that buildings in where there are people, computers, monitors, printers and papers. From German late researches, it is evaluated that one-third of diseases has an environmental origin. In United States, the health authorities have defined home pollution like one of the first elements of danger for the public health.

Chemical solvents, which are contained in cleaning products and in synthetic paints, resins, which are present in chipboards of furniture, covers, which are in different kinds of building materials, and various kind of dust, enrich the indoor places of: benzol, formaldehyde, chlorine, fluorine, metals, mineral fibres. Such materials not only introduce in the air a great quantity of chemical volatile substances but also produce electrostatic charges that condense the dust and the substances described above.

It must be not forgiven to worsen the situation: the presence of a new generation of fixture that, being used as energy conservation, tighten buildings like airtight cases. In addition, the filters of conditioned air are repository of every kind of bacteria and virus.

All these substances are not beneficial for our organism, in fact they induce various short-term diseases, such as: headache, difficulties in concentration, tiredness, depression, sleepiness, irritation of respiratory tract and difficulties in breathing. These effects are all connected with a sole disease called “Sick Building Syndrome”, which appears in indoor unhealthy spaces. However there are worse long-term effects in where the polluting substances act in a cellular level and determine: carcinogenesis, allergology and fetal deformities.

Houseplants are able not only to release oxygen by absorbing carbon dioxide during the photosynthesis, but also they are able to absorb and to transfer all noxious substances, which are listed above, until roots. Here they are metabolised and then removed by micro-organisms that are in the substratum.

Such statement results form reliable sources: since eighties Nasa laboratories have been studying systems to lower pollution, which we discussed before, in boats and in satellite stations through the use of houseplants. Great facts are Bmw, whose offices are in Monaco, and Ferrari with its project “Formula-Man”, located in Maranello. They have invested a huge sum of money to furnish with plants your industrial areas. In both cases the more and more important introduction of plants has bring to better work conditions, to better employers' satisfaction and to a minor absenteeism due to health problems: all this it is been translated in a great increase in productiveness.

How

Only after having a clear idea of the state of your spaces and after taking with accuracy the temperature and light, a technical staff is able to create a project completed with photomontages to see the final result before proceeding with the purchase of the service.

The use of systems in hydro-farming solves the problem of dirtiness and of posts, because plants are cultivated in a clay substratum instead of in a normal loam. The wetting is made every 2/4 weeks only when proper indicators report the need of it.

Maintenance

Greensol supplies plants for your office or for your business. These plants have a great attractive value for creating a pleasant and prestigious working environment. A maintenance contract guarantees the treatment of your plants through monthly interventions during them our technical staff carry out the wetting, the fertilization and the cleaning of leaves. When plants became wilt or dead, they will be replaced gratis in a week.

The service is specifically suited for who does not see about the care and the maintenance of industrial area but wants easily preserve a clean and green environment. The service of provision and maintenance of plants is regulated by a contract and assures all the year the presence of impeccable plants in offices, professional studios, shops and representation offices.
