In December 2020, SRS Group was engaged to install green facades around the base of two Silo Park tanks in Auckland's Viaduct Harbour. Stage One of this project required us to work with the project engineers to design, manufacture bespoke stand-off fittings and attach tensile mesh screens to the tanks, utilising the custom fittings all to the unique curvature of the silo tanks. SRS Group’s robust design solution offered this project quality 316 Stainless Steel rigging hardware from our architectural rigging partners Ronstan and stainless steel X-TEND mesh from Carl Stahl. Following the mesh installation by our architectural rigging team, SRS Group planted the climbing foliage vines (tecomanthe species), at the base of the two silo park tanks. In Stage Two, SRS were contracted to install another seven tanks' facades with our custom stand off system and Carl Stahl X-TEND mesh, one of these tanks utilised the mesh as the support system for a spectacular lighting installation.

“Luke and SRS have been involved in the design and installation of a number of Hanging Gardens projects and it has been an absolute pleasure working with him and his team. SRS has a wonderful work ethic and delivers to the highest standard. The team can be relied upon to ensure projects are undertaken on time and on budget. They are the NZ specialists in the area of structural rigging solutions and tensile architecture. Not only do they work for Hanging Gardens as our partner of the first choice, but they undertake work for all other companies involved in the construction of vertical gardens for improving urban areas. The team is an absolute joy to work with and their attention to detail is outstanding. I have no hesitation in recommending Luke and his company SRS for projects.”
