A custom artificial living wall system: artificial foliage on a 6-gauge galvanized wire mesh backing, stood off the wall on hat channel and secured with galvanized clips. Built to your wall's width and height, for architects, designers, and code-conscious projects.
Vallum FRX is made to order for each wall. The foliage is fixed to a galvanized wire mesh backing, and the backing is held off the wall on hat channel so it sits as a finished feature wall rather than a covering glued to the surface.
The 6-gauge galvanized wire mesh carries the foliage. Hat channel fastened to the wall creates the standoff, and galvanized clips secure the mesh to the channel. How the channel attaches depends on the wall behind it, so the substrate and attachment are reviewed for each project.
NFPA 701 Method 2 documentation is available for applicable configurations. Request it for your exact configuration before ordering; final acceptance rests with the authority having jurisdiction.
Exploded view: the wall, hat channel, 6-gauge galvanized wire mesh, galvanized clips, and artificial foliage, in the order they go on.
What a Vallum FRX wall is made of. Dimensions, foliage, and attachment are confirmed in the written specification for each project.
| Component | What it is | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Backing | 6-gauge galvanized wire mesh | Carries the foliage |
| Standoff | Hat channel | Fastened to the wall to hold the mesh off the surface |
| Clips | Galvanized clips | Secure the mesh to the hat channel |
| Foliage | Artificial foliage | Species, colors, and pattern selected per design |
| Fire documentation | NFPA 701 Method 2 | Documentation for applicable configurations; AHJ decides acceptance |
| Wall and attachment | Reviewed per project | Depends on the substrate behind the wall |
| Interior or exterior | Confirmed per project | Send the location and exposure with your request |
Each wall is built to its own width and height rather than assembled from a fixed stock panel size.
The foliage rides on 6-gauge galvanized wire mesh, secured with galvanized clips to hat channel that holds it off the wall.
NFPA 701 Method 2 documentation is available for applicable configurations, matched to the configuration you specify.
Species mix, color, and density are planned for each wall so the finished surface reads as one composition.
Artificial foliage needs no plumbing, water, or growing medium.
Vallum FRX ships from Escondido, California. California installation is handled by Califauxscapes; elsewhere, your own installer mounts it.
Hat channel is fastened to the wall, the galvanized mesh is clipped to the channel, and the foliage is finished in place. Install time depends on the wall size, the substrate, and site access, and is confirmed with the quote.
California: installation by Califauxscapes, the installation division of Geranium Street USA, Inc., CSLB #955154.
