OPAS

OPAS - Open Pattern Acoustic Screen

  • Functionality:

    • Acoustic Management: OPAS is designed to mitigate urban noise effectively. The "open pattern" refers to the design of the structure that allows for sound absorption without completely closing off the space. This feature makes it particularly useful in noisy urban environments where sound mitigation is needed without sacrificing air flow or visual connectivity.
    • Aesthetic Integration: Besides its functional role in sound management, OPAS adds aesthetic value to urban areas. Its design integrates greenery and structural elements that enhance the visual appeal of city spaces.

    Materials:

    • OPAS structures use sustainable materials like recycled steel and natural elements like eel grass, similar to the ReSorb columns. These materials are chosen for their environmental benefits as well as their functional properties, such as sound absorption and resistance to elements.

    Applications:

    • Urban Settings: Ideal for installation in areas such as parks, near busy roads, or around public squares where both noise reduction and visual enhancement are desired.
    • Modular Setup: The open pattern design allows for flexible configurations, making it suitable for various urban spaces, from small parklets to extensive green corridors.

    OPAS, as a part of the ReSorb initiative, underscores a commitment to innovative, sustainable urban design by merging functionality with environmental stewardship. It addresses the dual needs of acoustic management and urban beautification, making it a versatile solution for contemporary city planning challenges.

Discover ReSorb: The Green Heartbeat of Urban Landscapes

At UrbanOasis, we’re passionate about redefining urban living with our innovative green infrastructure. Our mission is simple: to transform urban environments into lush, serene, and sustainable ecosystems. The ReSorb/OPAS columns, standing majestically, are not just architectural elements—they are lifelines to a healthier city life.


What Makes ReSorb Unique?

Each ReSorb column is crafted from recycled steel and packed with natural eel grass, known for its exceptional properties in fire resistance, sound absorption, and water retention. Wrapped in vibrant evergreen plants, these columns are designed to mimic the aesthetic of real trees, bringing a piece of the forest into the urban jungle.


Revolutionizing Urban Spaces

  • Noise Reduction: Dive into tranquility as our columns significantly cut down urban noise, offering a peaceful retreat in the heart of the city.
  • Climate Control: Feel the coolness as ReSorb columns naturally moderate temperatures, combating the urban heat island effect through evapotranspiration.
  • Water Management: Experience resilience as these green columns manage stormwater by capturing and storing rainwater, reducing runoff and alleviating the stress on city drainage systems.

Core Applications of ReSorb in Urban Settings

  • Acoustic Management: ReSorb columns are strategically designed to reduce ambient noise levels in urban areas. The eel grass within the columns acts as a natural sound absorber, making them ideal for placement near highways, busy streets, or in densely populated residential areas.

  • Thermal Regulation: The natural evapotranspiration from the plants and the water retained in the eel grass help cool the surrounding air, effectively mitigating the urban heat island effect. This makes ReSorb an excellent addition to city parks, public squares, and other open spaces where thermal comfort is desired.

  • Stormwater Containment: ReSorb’s ability to absorb and gradually release water makes it an effective tool for stormwater management. By capturing rainwater runoff, the columns help prevent the overload of urban drainage systems during heavy rainfall, reducing the risk of flooding.

  • Sustainable Construction: The use of recycled steel and natural vegetation supports sustainable building practices and contributes to the overall reduction of the urban carbon footprint.

  • Urban Biodiversity: By incorporating plant life and creating microhabitats, ReSorb columns contribute to increasing urban biodiversity, supporting insects and bird populations, and enhancing ecological resilience.

Strategic Placement and Scalability

ReSorb columns can be installed individually as standalone features or grouped to form green corridors and mini forests, depending on the specific needs and spatial configurations of urban environments. The modular nature of ReSorb allows for scalable solutions, adaptable to both small-scale garden applications and large-scale urban projects.


Sustainable and Stylish

ReSorb is not just about functionality; it’s about sustainable style. The integration of recycled materials and living plants promotes biodiversity and supports local ecosystems, all while enhancing urban aesthetics. Whether installed in parks, alongside city streets, or in residential complexes, ReSorb offers a practical solution to urban environmental challenges.
