HYVERT – Certificate of Excellence from Innovate UK

Absolutely delighted to share the news that our original Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP1) with Manchester Metropolitan University, ‘to develop a new capability to assess the impacts of living green infrastructure’, has just received a Certificate of Excellence from Innovate UK.

Not only this, it was also awarded the highest grade of “Outstanding” by the KTP Grading Panel for its achievement in meeting KTP’s Objectives.

The ‘living green infrastructure’ in this case refers specifically to our modular living wall system, HYVERT.

This is further proof that HYVERT has successfully met independent scientific scrutiny and extremely well deserved recognition for the hard working team of Manchester Metropolitan University Academics led by Dr David Megson, who all played their part in this environmental study – including our Head of Research & Development, Joseph Rouse.

Special mention also to Prof. Bamidele Adebisi, Dr Emma Coulthard and Dr Sanja Potgieter.

We are a progressive living wall manufacturer who have taken a quantitative route towards understanding the environmental and ecological benefits of living green infrastructure and this journey of discovery and consolidation continues….

KTP2 research is already underway with the same vigour and intensity; we look forward to sharing the findings in due course.

HYVERT is only available from I Want Plants.
