MetroGreen is the New Zealand agent for Citygreen; Sustainable Landscape Systems for Greener Cities.

Along with Citygreen, we share the love of trees. In fact, we believe they hold the key to better cities – and a better world.

Mankind needs trees in urban spaces in order to thrive, with abundant research proving the many benefits of environmentally-sound urban development. Trees as green utilities play a major role in maintaining sustainable urban ecosystems, and must take precedence in urban planning and design if we – and generations to come – are to reap the benefits.

But, trees have always battled to survive in cities, with one of two outcomes usually occurring. Either growth is stunted with trees never reaching their full potential, or surrounding infrastructure is damaged by invasive root systems. The problem was clear, with no economically or agriculturally viable solution. Determined to make a difference, Citygreen was founded to solve it.

Investing years in comprehensive research and development, Citygreen has explored the challenges, the causes of failure, and the reasons for premature mortality in urban trees. They then examined the negative impact poor planting can have on urban environments. Having identified the key issues in both areas, Citygreen thoroughly researched the solutions for those issues, and then designed practical products and systems to address them. Successfully!

Today, Citygreen's urban landscape solutions are best practice in their field and endorsed by professional organisations around the globe, putting Citygreen at the cutting edge of sustainable landscape solutions for cities.  

What makes Citygreen different?

1. SustainabilityUnlike other modular systems, our advanced Stratavault© and Stratacell© structural modules are 

made from 100% recycled plastic. We take plastic waste, granulate it, formulate it to exacting standards, and then injection mould it into incredibly strong modules – providing a huge environmental benefit.

2. Strength
Our Stratavault and Stratacell structural modules are the strongest available by a very large factor, making them suitable for use under highly-trafficked surfaces, including areas frequented by heavy machinery such as excavation equipment and cranes. In fact, one Stratavault module alone can support the weight of a 10 tonne truck!

3. Quality
We offer unparalleled quality, standing by our products 100%. We comply with high production standards and quality procedures in accordance with ISO90001, and we’ve also achieved Environmental Management System accreditation.

4. Service
We pride ourselves on our exceptional customer service, described by our customers as helpful, ethical, and trustworthy. Read our testimonials to learn more about our unrivalled service and support during consultation, design, and installation.

The Citygreen Vision

Whilst Citygreen has grown in leaps and bounds, their vision remains powerfully simple: a world where sustainable green space is within reach of every person, every day – and natural resources are utilized (not wasted) for the benefit of mankind. Of course, we can’t do it alone.

Citygreen has collaborated with global research and distribution partners over the last two decades to deliver this technology globally, with distribution channels across Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, UK and Europe, the USA and Canada, and new channels planned in Israel and the United Arab Emirates. They also collaborate with local authorities, Landscape Architects, Arboriculturalists, Civil Engineers, and other related professionals to continually improve best practice in green technology implementation.
