Designer Plants' Luxury White Oasis Vertical Garden is a commercial-grade, Group 1 fire-certified artificial green wall panel designed for Australian hospitality, retail, office, healthcare, education and public-facing environments. It combines dense, lifelike foliage and delicate white flowering accents with independently tested fire performance for projects where visual impact, material safety and supporting documentation all matter.

The panel incorporates FireTex technology directly into the material during manufacturing rather than relying on a temporary surface coating or post-purchase spray. Its Group 1 classification is supported by independent laboratory testing that assesses ignitability, flame spread, heat release and smoke development. Product-specific fire-testing documentation is available on request for architects, designers, builders, certifiers, landlords and facility managers.

Each 1m × 1m panel is also manufactured from low-density polyethylene (LDPE) with RealTex detailing and UVTex UV inhibitors integrated within the foliage material. The result is a realistic, low-maintenance vertical garden suitable for demanding commercial interiors as well as selected outdoor installations.

Commercial greenery should enhance a project without creating a compliance problem later. The Luxury White Oasis panel combines a refined white-flowering finish with Group 1 fire certification, integrated FireTex technology and supporting test documentation for specification-led Australian projects.

Specifications

Commercial Applications for the Luxury White Oasis Group 1 Fire-Certified Panel

A 1m² modular panel designed to satisfy both aesthetic and commercial specification priorities. The Group 1 fire certification and integrated FireTex construction make it particularly suited to projects where fire-testing documentation may be requested by a builder, landlord, insurer, fire consultant or approving authority.

Restaurants, cafés, bars and hospitality venues
Create a lush, photographic backdrop around dining areas, entries, counters and function spaces without introducing the irrigation, moisture or maintenance demands of living greenery. Group 1 certification supports specification in public-facing hospitality projects where fire performance is a key consideration.

Offices and shared workplaces
Use the panel across reception walls, boardrooms, breakout areas and collaboration zones to soften commercial interiors and introduce botanical texture. The modular format allows the wall to be designed around signage, screens, doors and architectural features.

Retail stores and shopping centres
Build high-impact merchandising walls, fitting-room features, window displays and branded installations using greenery supported by project-specific fire-testing documentation. Panels can be installed permanently or incorporated into demountable display systems.

Reception areas, lobbies and public corridors
The wall behind a reception desk often defines the first impression of an entire building. White flowering accents add refinement while the dense foliage delivers a premium, finished appearance suited to offices, hotels, clinics, residential developments and public facilities.

Healthcare, aged care, education and childcare
Introduce low-maintenance greenery into waiting rooms, communal spaces, learning environments and activity areas without soil, watering or pruning. Project teams should review the product's fire and material documentation against the requirements of the specific building and application.

Hotels, serviced apartments and accommodation
Use the White Oasis panel in foyers, function rooms, lift waiting areas, business lounges and selected guest-facing spaces to achieve a consistent botanical finish across multi-site or high-traffic environments.

Events, activations and exhibition displays
Panels install quickly, photograph realistically and can be reused across multiple campaigns. They are well suited to media walls, trade stands, product launches, branded activations and temporary installations where both presentation and material documentation are important.

Residential and outdoor feature walls
The same commercial-grade panel can also be used for home feature walls, courtyards, balconies, fences and pool surrounds, subject to appropriate installation and the conditions of the UV warranty.

Planning a commercial project? Request the relevant fire-testing report before final specification and provide it to your builder, fire consultant, building surveyor or certifier for project-specific review. Call Designer Plants on 1800 617 341 or email sales@designerplants.com.au.

Understanding Group 1 Certification and FireTex

Group 1 is a recognised fire-performance classification achieved through independent laboratory testing. The assessment considers how a material behaves when exposed to heat and flame, including ignitability, flame spread, heat release and smoke development.

The Luxury White Oasis panel uses FireTex, Designer Plants' fire-resistant technology integrated directly into the product material during manufacture. This is materially different from relying on a temporary after-market coating that may require reapplication or may not correspond with the tested construction.

Fire requirements vary by building classification, state, installation method and intended use. The final acceptance of any product remains subject to the relevant project's building surveyor, certifier, fire engineer, consultant or approving authority. Designer Plants can provide the applicable testing documentation to support that review.

Installation

Each panel is designed for straightforward installation on a suitable flat vertical surface. Panels can be trimmed to size with ordinary scissors and joined using the integrated interlocking edges. On brick or masonry surfaces, wall plugs and screws with washers are recommended. On timber, screws or suitable staples through the backing grid can provide a clean finish. Cable ties may be used on mesh, fencing or suitable framed structures.

For commercial projects, the substrate, fixing method, access requirements and any fire-safety conditions should be reviewed by the project contractor or relevant consultant before installation. A step-by-step installation guide with video walkthrough is available in the Resource Hub, and Designer Plants can assist with installation planning and project quotations across Australia.

Why Designers and Commercial Operators Specify Designer Plants

Designer Plants supplies artificial greenery for commercial and residential projects throughout Australia, including hospitality, retail, workplace, events, healthcare, education and public-facing environments. The Group 1-certified range is supported by independent fire-testing documentation, while FireTex technology is integrated directly into the material of certified products.

The Luxury White Oasis panel also combines realistic RealTex detailing, integrated UVTex protection, a modular 1m² format and low-maintenance construction. This makes it easier for architects, interior designers, builders, landscapers and facility managers to coordinate visual design, installation and supporting documentation through one supplier.

Trade pricing and wholesale accounts are available. Contact the team on 1800 617 341 or at sales@designerplants.com.au to request a quote, product samples or the relevant fire-testing report.

Maintenance

No watering, pruning, fertilising or pest control is required. For indoor commercial installations, periodically remove dust using a soft cloth, duster or suitable artificial plant cleaner. For outdoor panels, an occasional gentle rinse can remove surface dust and environmental build-up. Designer Plants' Eco-Friendly Artificial Plant Cleaner is available where a clean presentation is required year-round.
