Respyre
Developed at Delft University of Technology and built on patented bioreceptive concrete technology, Respyre’s MossCrete is bringing nature back into the built environment. Our mission is to bring MossCrete to the world, making sustainable urban greening a feasible solution for projects of all sizes. The benefits of green, at the price of grey.

30+MossCrete in action
Projects worldwideFrom pilot projects to full-scale applications, our MossCrete technology transforms conventional concrete surfaces into living, moss-covered facades. Each project demonstrates how bioreceptive concrete can bring nature into the built environment.
Engineered for architecture. Designed for nature.

CleanerAir by nature that contributes 24/7
Improved air qualityMoss absorbs CO₂ and NOₓ, captures particulate matter, and helps transform passive surfaces into healthier urban infrastructure for streets, buildings, and neighborhoods.

Nature for every facade
MossCrete suits both new construction and renovation. Apply it directly to an existing facade as plaster, hang it as lightweight panels in a ventilated facade system, or integrate it into precast concrete panels.
From gray to breathing green:
learn more about Mosscrete
Every MossCrete project follows the same four steps, from preparation to a fully living moss facade. A thin, 15 mm layer of bioreceptive concrete adds greenery without a freestanding green wall system.
Surface check
The existing substrate is checked for stability, roughness and adhesion.
Applying MossCrete
The bioreceptive concrete is applied to the facade as a thin plaster layer, or integrated into prefab facade elements.
Moss coating
The facade receives our specially developed bio coating, made with a mix of carefully selected moss species.
Irrigation
Controlled irrigation supports moss growth during the establishment phase. As the moss develops, the irrigation frequency is gradually reduced.
