Modular greening systems for more liveable cities. Natural cooling, particulate filtering and tangible quality of stay – right where they are needed most. We turn sealed, overheated surfaces into living green places that bring people together and protect their health.
CityRoots stands for a future in which nature is tangible again – functional, social and ecologically valuable. Our greening systems cool sealed surfaces, create inviting places to linger and make a measurable contribution to climate protection. Because people stay where they feel good.
Climate-resilient shade and natural greening – modular, ready to use within a few hours and individually configurable for every location. Our systems combine ecological value with urban design.
The CityOase is our modular pergola system for large-scale shading and greening. Robust concrete planters form the foundation, carrying weatherproof timber or steel structures over which native climbing plants form a living, natural roof of shade. Combining several modules lets you shape entire areas – tailored through different sizes, layouts, plants and materials.
Assembly follows a plug-and-play principle: no elaborate construction work, no foundations, no permits. Installation takes just a few hours without disrupting ongoing operations. Pre-grown plant modules provide direct shade from day one – and over time an ever denser green roof grows in.
The CityOase is especially suited to squares, pedestrian zones and gathering areas where people come together. Integrated benches of high-quality timber invite you to linger. Digital info columns, lighting or seasonal decorative elements can be added optionally – for experiential spaces that adapt to changing needs.

The CityTree brings a tree to where none can grow. The compact single module combines a robust concrete planter with an elegant tree-shaped metal structure, over which fast-growing native climbing plants form a natural canopy – with no soil or root space needed. A piece of nature that noticeably improves the local microclimate.
The surrounding timber benches turn the CityTree into an urban meeting point for families, passers-by and visitors. People find shade, rest and natural cooling in the middle of city life. Integrated irrigation keeps the plants healthy and green even through hot summers – for a pleasant microclimate that protects people’s health.
Thanks to its compact build, the CityTree can be placed flexibly in pedestrian zones, on squares or in front of entrances. UV-resistant, durable materials, a low-maintenance construction and structural stability to official requirements make it the ideal companion for busy locations.
Installed within a few hours – no elaborate foundations, no disruption to ongoing operations. A high degree of prefabrication enables fast delivery and straightforward on-site assembly.
Direct shade from day one thanks to pre-grown plant modules. Fast-growing climbing plants ensure rapid full greening – with the option to adapt seasonally to changing needs.
Weatherproof steel or timber modules with UV-resistant greening systems and high-quality surface materials. Engineered for wind and rain loads – built for 10 to 15 years of service at busy locations.
Different sizes and layouts to suit each location. Individual design through plants, materials and colours. Optionally integrable: digital info columns, lighting or solar modules.
CityOase and CityTree are at home wherever people gather. In city centres, on squares, in front of shops – everywhere sealed surfaces call for cooling and quality of life.
Green pergola modules transform sealed squares into green places to be, with real experiential character. Integrated benches invite you to linger, while native climbing plants provide natural cooling and a pleasant microclimate. Greening large sealed surfaces makes climate protection visible and improves the overall perception of the location. Ideal for town-hall squares, city centres and public promenades.
CityTree modules create green islands in shopping streets and pedestrian zones – shady places to relax and linger. They offer natural cooling through evaporation and greenery and create meeting points for families and visitors. Their compact build blends seamlessly into existing street furniture and creates a relaxed atmosphere that noticeably increases dwell time.
Inspiring outdoor areas for retail, hospitality and events. CityOase modules can be shaped into seasonal themed worlds and create photogenic spots with high social-media potential. Visitors experience realistic outdoor living under natural shade – green oases that draw visitors, increase dwell time and position locations as sustainable innovation leaders.
Our greening systems work on several levels at once: they cool, filter, enliven and beautify. Sustainable design that moves municipalities and businesses forward measurably.
Local temperature reduction through evaporation and natural shade – tangible for every visitor
New habitat for insects, birds and plants in the middle of the city – a contribution to climate-adapted locations
