The Dresden-based biotech receives millions in funding. It plans to use the money to expand its product range.

Green City Solutions, a biotech founded in Dresden in 2014 and now based in Bestensee near Berlin, is receiving funding in the single-digit millions from Heinz Dürr Invest. The company did not disclose the exact amount. With the new capital, Green City Solutions intends to expand its Citybreeze, Citytree and Wallbreeze products in particular, according to founder Peter Sänger.

Green City Solution wants to provide "fresh air zones" with filtering and cooling functions . Citytree, for example, is a fine dust filter for urban spaces that works by using the natural air filtration of moss and integrated IoT for an automated irrigation and ventilation system. The other offerings also work through a combination of moss and IoT technology. According to the startup, the devices are already in some German cities such as Berlin and Bonn, as well as London and Zurich.

The three market-ready solutions convinced Heinz Dürr of the company. "Green City Solutions' technology is a forward-looking example of how ecology and economy go well together," says entrepreneur Heinz Dürr. For founder and CEO Peter Sänger, this investment is an "absolute milestone."
