Living green infrastructure for commercial spaces.
GreenAir designs living green infrastructure for commercial spaces across New Zealand. Not decoration. Essential systems that transform how people feel, work, and connect with the spaces around them. From entrance planting that changes the way people experience a building the moment they walk in, to living walls that bring nature into the heart of a workspace, to smart-sensor atrium forests monitored in real time.
For over two decades, we have been designing living systems for New Zealand's commercial buildings. Every installation starts with the building itself: its light conditions, its airflow, its environment. Then we design greenery shaped by those conditions and built to thrive in them.

how we
Commercial plant hire for offices, lobbies, shared spaces, and hospitality venues. Every plant is grown in our Kumeu nursery and acclimatised before delivery, so it arrives ready to perform — not just to look good on day one. Flexible arrangements, designed around your building.
plant hirehow we
Specialist horticultural technicians on a regular schedule. Species health assessment, seasonal adjustment, pruning, cleaning, and organic-first pest management. We don't hand over a project and walk away — we maintain every installation to the standard it was designed for.
maintenancehow we
We assess the building — light, airflow, humidity, and how people move through the space. From there we develop zone-by-zone planting strategies with species selected for each area's specific conditions. Integrated with architects and fit-out teams from day one.
designwhat we
Living walls, green screens, and vertical planting systems. Our felt-pocket panel system is among the lightest on the market at 60kg per square metre saturated, supporting a wide range of species including New Zealand natives. From lobby feature walls to full-atrium installations.
living wallswhere we
Rooftop vegetable gardens, herb planters for restaurants, and productive urban growing spaces. We bring food growing into commercial buildings with the same design rigour we apply to everything else. From seed to plate, in the heart of the city.
urban gardeningSimon Chamberlain · Founder
GreenAir was founded by Simon Chamberlain with a straightforward conviction: that greenery in commercial buildings should be designed with the same rigour as the architecture around it.
That was over twenty years ago. Since then, GreenAir has grown from a single nursery in Kumeu to a team operating across five New Zealand cities, with more than 300 living installations.
Over 90 percent of the plants we install are propagated and grown in-house, specifically for each project. We don’t buy stock from a supplier. We grow it to specification.
