The Trinity® LivingWall™ system allows for the stabilization of walls and slopes with variable inclinations between 45 degrees and 80 degrees using the Commercial System, and 70 degrees using the Landscape System. The system’s galvanized wire facing elements allow for mechanical connection and reinforcement while providing structure and containment of Filtrexx® GrowingMedia™. Through the use of our GroSoxx®, the Trinity LivingWall system provides superior soil retention and erosion protection while providing an optimum environment for vegetation establishment.

5. Take Advantage of the Vertical Space!
Our Mission is
Hardscape vs. Landscape
Solid Walls have
two outcomes:
(1) Great
structure for
holding back
the grade
change
(2) Great at
contributing

and this sort of
project is everywhere.
Lots of opportunity to
use Living Walls as an
alternate that offers
so much more
environmental service
for a comparable
price.

Great wall but not
great
environmental
service.
Our planet needs
more
environmental
service from
typical structures!

8. Creating Structural Facing Systems That Support Healthy
Plants is What We Do Across Our Entire Product Line

9. Why Filtrexx® LivingWalls™
• Committed to the entire life cycle of these
plant-based building systems
• MSE and non-MSE applications
• Solutions for 90° to 25° of inclination

10. Why Trinity Living Walls?
Structure - Living
Retaining Walls provide
the underlying structure
needed to permanently
stabilize grade changes.
Design Flexibility –
Trinity Systems can
be installed where
many other
systems cannot.
Locations such as
rural areas where
light weight
materials cut down
trucking costs
significantly.
Environmental Benefits - Living walls
minimize stormwater runoff, cool the
environment, and provide habitat for
native creatures. Plant based living
systems have been shown to benefit
buildings, owners, occupants, and
the environment.

13. Filtrexx – Trinity Living Walls

14. How was the Trinity™ LivingWall System
Developed?
1. Proven erosion control and plant growth of Filtrexx
International’s compost filled Soxx
2. Installed into the security of a galvanized wire facing system
3. With system components matched, engineered, delivered and
maintained to full grow-in by The Living Wall Company, LLC

15. Trinity Evolutionary Firsts
• Integration of proven wire form,
polymer strap reinforcement and
precise, modular placement of
excellent growth media at the
facing in one elegant operation
• Galvanized welded wire face
elements in several sizes
• Simple “mechanical” connection
to reinforcement straps
• First and only system to utilize
Filtrexx Soxx as erosion control
and growth media at the facing
• Extremely high coverage to
weight ratio for reduction in
trucking, fuel and install labor
• Largest “verifiable” and “quantifiable”
growth media volume of any plantable
wall system
• Soxx filled with locally produced
“certified” compost
• Uniform face angle at 70 degrees with
facing interlock for precise alignment
• Designed for maximum contribution to
LEED points
• Easily establish native perennials from
seed included inside the Filtrexx Soxx
• Designed for drip tubing inclusion
• Available worldwide as a locally
manufactured green building product

16. Traditional Welded Wire Walls
Value Proposition – walls and slopes, design flexibility, availability, easily shipped,
possible greenspace, lower price where aesthetics are not a driver

17. Traditional wire wall suppliers leave living wall components such as soil and plants up to
“others” – the detail below looks great but actually creating it in the field takes integrated
components and a business model based on healthy plant covered structures.

18. Traditional wire walls do not have verifiable quality and quantity of growth media at the
face –nobody really knows what is installed or how much?

24. Uniform Continuous Face at 70 degrees, Great Batter Control
and Radius Capability

25. Same nice radius wall from the last
slide but one year later after both
cover crop and native permanent
crop has grown in – all from seed

26. Before and
after pictures
tell the tale.
Our “soft
block”
systems
function like
regular block
walls and then
they support
long-term
coverage by
healthy
plants.

27. Lots of
flexibility to
build walls and
slopes at a
variety of
heights – just
like block and
traditional
systems but
with the added
environmental
benefit of
plants covering
the face long-
term.

28. Irrigation for All of Our Systems
Flat drip tape or
round emitter
tubing is run under
the mesh from one
end of our wall
systems to the
other. Cost effective
and functional
irrigation ensures
good germination
and early plant
health in order to
establish strong
root systems for the
long term.

29. Trinity “C”ommercial – Basic Parts
GroSoxx - in two foot lengths . “Cover crop” seed or
“permanent crop” seed can be run inside the soxx for
ease of placement. Live plugs, native seed or live
stakes can be added from the face after completion.
Several Strengths of Polymer Strap, Support Struts, Strap
Rollers and Irrigation Tubing serve a range of applications.

32. Trinity “L”andscape – Basic Parts
Unique 3’ wide panels that cover a full 6 sf each once
installed and provide for even more handling ease. This
series of panels only weighs 8 lbs. each and allows for
easy shipment on 4’x4’ pallets to any jobsite.
Various strengths of our unique SmartStraps and
irrigation tubing for a range of applications Our
systems rely on true mechanical connection to
reinforcement that is safely concealed behind the
face. ( a must! )
