Tell us about your company.

AgroSci® is a design/build company specializing in custom green walls and plantscapes that integrate biophilic design with active air-remediation technology for healthier, more sustainable commercial spaces.

What is your role in sustainability?

AgroSci®’s patented/proprietary greenwall system, Aerogation®, is an active bioremediation system, recycling indoor air by cleaning it through the natural process of remediation. As a soil-based system using air to deliver water in the form of humidified air to plant roots, interior contaminated air is cleaned of VOCs and other contaminants by the breakdown of carbon-based compounds by beneficial soil microbes and bacteria—working 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, along with the other positive benefits of plants in a design, such as noise reduction, insulation, and solar sinks.

Project Spotlight

AgroSci® is especially proud of their work on the 1 Hotel in Nashville, Tennessee, the fourth 1 Hotel property where AgroSci has designed and installed signature green walls and horticultural features.

The project features the largest exterior greenwall in Tennessee—with 14,000 pots, 56,000 ivy plants, and an ivy drape spanning 800 feet. Supported by a 29-zone computerized irrigation system, the wall is carefully monitored to ensure plant health and water efficiency.

In addition, AgroSci® created custom landscape features at the hotel entrance, welcoming guests with regional plants that reflect the eco-friendly, biophilic vision of the 1 Hotel brand.
