1. Raw material preparation stage
Purchase of simulated plant materials
Leaves/vines: Choose PE/PVC/PET environmentally friendly materials, which are required to be UV-resistant, anti-aging, and realistic in color.
Stems/branches: Use iron wire + plastic wrapping technology to ensure plasticity and support.
Base material: such as high-density foam board, mesh cloth or plastic backboard (need to be waterproof and lightweight).
Auxiliary materials: environmentally friendly glue (hot melt glue or super glue), fixing buckles, screws, flame retardants (optional).
Frame material preparation
Metal frame: aluminum alloy/stainless steel square tube (surface anti-rust treatment is required).
Waterproof coating: spray or immersion treatment, used for moisture and corrosion resistance of outdoor products.
Quality inspection and pretreatment
Leaves are sampled to test tensile strength and color fastness (no fading after immersion for 24 hours).
The frame size cutting error is controlled within ±0.5mm.
2. Structural design and frame production
Design modeling
Use CAD/3D software to plan plant layout and match customer size (such as 1m×2m modular design).
Output drawings and confirm leaf density (usually 200-300 pieces/㎡).
Frame processing
Metal pipe cutting → welding/assembly → surface spraying (RAL color number matches customer needs).
Reserve installation holes and drainage grooves (must have for outdoor models).
3. Plant leaf processing
Leaf cutting and shaping
Cut the leaves according to the design drawings and remove the burrs on the edges.
Use a hot air gun to locally heat the leaves and adjust the curvature.
Coloring and special treatment
Spray gradient colors (such as transition from dark green to light green at the tip of the leaf).
Add flame retardant (tested by UL94 V-0 standard).
Pre-assembly quality inspection
Spot check the connection firmness between the leaves and branches (tensile force ≥ 5kg).
4. Assembly process
Substrate fixation
Attach the mesh cloth/foam board to the metal frame and fix it with a nail gun or glue.
Blade installation
Manual insertion: insert the blades into the holes of the substrate according to the design drawings, with a spacing error of <2mm.
Mechanical assistance: Use an automatic leaf inserter (applicable to standardized products).
Reinforcement treatment: Use secondary wire wrapping or glue fixation on key parts.
Three-dimensional shape adjustment
Adjust the blade angle to simulate the natural growth form (tilt 15°-45°).
5. Quality Inspection
Appearance Inspection
Color difference ≤ 5% (compared with Pantone color card), no glue marks, rough edges.
Performance Test
Wind resistance test: outdoor models must pass 8-level wind simulation (wind speed 20m/s).
Flame retardant test: self-extinguishing within 2 seconds of open flame contact.
Waterproof test: IP65 level (no leakage after 30 minutes of high-pressure water gun washing).
Re-inspection before packaging
Check the size and number of accessories (such as mounting brackets and instructions).
6. Packaging and delivery
Shockproof packaging
Modular split (single piece ≤ 25kg), pearl cotton wrapped corners.
Customized corrugated paper box (moisture-proof film on the inner layer).
Logo and documents
Mark “upward” and “anti-pressure” on the outer box, and affix product QR code (including installation video link).
Attached with quality inspection report, warranty card, CE/FSC certification documents (MSDS required for export).
Logistics management
The container is fixed with steel straps, and desiccant is added for seaborne products.
The batch number is entered into the system to achieve full process traceability.
Key process control points
Glue curing temperature: hot melt adhesive heated to 160±5℃ (avoid charring).
Leaf density gradient: bottom>top, enhancing visual layering.
Modular design: supports fast splicing (tolerance controlled within ±1mm).
Through the above process, it can ensure that the artificial plant wall has both aesthetics, durability and easy installation, meeting the needs of commercial and home scenes.
