Reutlingen, one of the largest cities in Baden-Württemberg, is setting a strong example for climate protection and sustainable urban development: An innovative green facade was installed at the DHL parking garage. This project is part of the city’s climate adaptation measures and was implemented in collaboration with the renowned industrial building specialist Astron Buildings from Luxembourg.

In collaboration with Carl Stahl ARC, a green facade specialist, the facade was designed during the planning phase to provide an optimal basis for the greening – both technically and in terms of design. The combination of functional industrial construction and ecological design demonstrates what sustainable architecture can look like in practice.

The greening itself improves the microclimate, reduces the ambient temperature through shading and evaporative cooling, and contributes to air purification. An intelligent rainwater management system ensures the resource-efficient supply of the plants. With this project, Reutlingen underlines its claim to be a pioneer in the field of urban climate adaptation – and shows how future-oriented solutions can be created through cooperation between the city, businesses, and innovative construction partners such as Astron Buildings.
