THE JUNGLEFY BREATHING WALLAn active, modular green wall system that combines
nature and technology to provide a safer, more comfortable and productive working and living environment.
Breaks VOCs down into harmless substances.

1. CARBON DIOXIDE REDUCTION
CO2 is the gas we exhale. High concentrations lead to headaches, lethargy and poor productivity. The Junglefy Breathing Wall reduces CO2 through photosynthesis, creating oxygen.
2. VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS REMOVAL
VOCs are toxic gases released from plastics, carpets, furnishings and paints. Many are known to cause cancer. The Junglefy Breathing Wall breaks VOCs down into harmless substances.
3. PARTICULATE MATTER FILTRATION
Particles less than or equal to 2.5 microns in diameter (<PM2.5), such as emissions from vehicle exhausts, is one of the world’s worst air pollutants, leading to more than 600,000 deaths per year in China alone. The Junglefy Breathing Wall can remove 95% of all <PM2.5 from starting concentrations, allowing the air to be returned to safe breathing levels within 60 minutes.
4. NOISE REDUCTION
Office environments can be noisy and distracting, leading to poor productivity. The Junglefy Breathing Wall reduces noise by absorbing it.
5. ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Air conditioning consumes about 48% of a building’s energy costs. The Junglefy Breathing Wall reduces the reliance on air conditioning and humidifies the air.
6. BIOPHILIC RESPONSE
Many sustainable building rating tools have recognised the value of biophilia. The Junglefy Breathing Wall is an effective, space saving means of introducing nature into our internal builtenvironments, creating healthier and happier building occupants.

The Junglefy Breathing Wall can clean the air faster than any other plant-based system on the market, which has been proven through extensive testing and the results of a two-year research study by the University of Technology Sydney (UTS).

Indoor air pollution is almost always more concentrated than outdoor air pollution – as outdoor-sourced contaminants enter through natural or mechanical ventilation, mixing with indoor-sourced pollutants, such as CO2 and VOCs. These pollutants then become trapped inside sealed buildings, and grow ever more concentrated.
SOURCE: These claims are based on a research study conducted by Dr Fraser Torpy and his colleagues at the Plants and Indoor Environmental Quality Research Group at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), who for the last 20 years have established themselves as world leaders researching the use of plants to reduce indoor air pollution and promote health and wellbeing for building occupants. This research has been submitted for peer review and is awaiting publication. For more information, go to junglefy.com.au/breathingwall

This is a major health problem, considering approximately 80% of the residents of developed countries live in urbanised areas, and spend on average 90% of their time indoors.
