Ecological greening and knowledge transfer

Ecological greening methods open up new possibilities for the ecological enhancement of urban and rural areas. By using native plant species and adapted greening techniques, diverse habitats can be created that support insects, birds and other animal species. Such greening not only contributes to improving the quality of life, especially in urban areas, but is also an important measure for climate adaptation.

Our research is dedicated to the development and implementation of greening concepts that are both aesthetically appealing and ecologically valuable. Knowledge transfer plays a central role in putting this expertise into practice.

Impressions from previous projects

  • <p>In our ecological greening projects, we combine ecological functions with economic and/or aesthetic functions. By using native, regional seeds and plants, we create long-lasting and adaptable green spaces that promote biodiversity and contribute to climate adaptation. Our greening concepts are designed to create sustainable habitats in both urban and rural areas.</p>
