Terapia Urbana is a Technology-Based Enterprise (TBE) headquartered in Seville, Spain, which has grown to become a leading reference in urban greening solutions and bioclimatic architecture on a global scale. With over 15 years of experience, the company comprises a multidisciplinary team of architects, agronomic engineers, and researchers affiliated with the University of Seville. Established as a business venture in 2006, Terapia Urbana has consistently maintained a strong commitment to innovation and sustainability, distinguished by its patented vertical garden systems and active biofilters.

 

Innovative Solutions

In an increasingly urbanised world, integrating nature into urban environments has become a priority. Terapia Urbana has developed innovative solutions that combine technology and nature to enhance the liveability of cities, benefitting both buildings and their occupants. Our vertical garden systems are internationally recognised for their ability to:

  • Reduce the carbon footprint of buildings and public spaces.
  • Improve air quality through biofiltration processes.
  • Enhance energy efficiency, lowering cooling costs.
  • Provide tangible benefits to well-being and performance in both work and residential environments.

These solutions are highly flexible and can be applied at various scales and across different building types, making them an ideal choice for both new projects and the retrofitting of existing structures. This versatility has been key to our expansion into international markets, where the demand for green infrastructure continues to grow.

 

International Expansion: Our Commitment to New Partnerships

Terapia Urbana is currently undergoing an ambitious expansion phase.

This process of internationalisation highlights our ability to adapt to local needs and regulations, while maintaining an unwavering commitment to sustainability and innovation.

We work closely with partners and collaborators in various countries, offering a tailored approach to each project. Understanding the specificities of each market and aligning our solutions with local standards and expectations is crucial to the success of our international collaborations.

We are confident that our international partners appreciate not only our technological solutions but also our working philosophy: a blend of scientific rigour, creativity, and a deep commitment to improving the urban environment.

 

Fytotextile: The Vertical Garden Technology

One of the most prominent advancements developed by Terapia Urbana is its patented Fytotextile system, a modular solution designed to integrate vegetation into building façades in a flexible and efficient manner. This system adapts to different shapes and surfaces, making it ideal for both retrofits and new constructions.

Fytotextile consists of a multi-layer textile structure that provides support for plant roots and ensures the even distribution of water and nutrients, optimising plant growth. The system incorporates an automated irrigation system, ensuring efficient water usage, which is particularly important in arid climates. Additionally, its lightweight design allows for quick and easy installation across a wide variety of building types, without adding significant structural load.
