What is moss ball/ Ball moss / Ballenmoos?

Moss ball, we use, is similar to the forest flat moss. However, it has a round or semi-round shape.

In English it is otherwise called Ball moos or in German Ballenmoos. With its soft structure, the moss wall made of Ball moss causes calming impression. In its immediate area it evokes a relaxing atmosphere. Ball moss is after all a village plant which has no roots. It has existed for 400 million years and it’s an inseparable part of Mother nature.  Ball moss can absorb toxic substances with its entire surface. It filters dust particles from the air.

Our moss tiles are made of 100% nature moss which we harvest ourselves and with regards to its long-lasting sustainability – with love to nature!

Moss wall made of Ball moss – but where does it actually come from?

The Ball moss comes from European forests. The harvest reminds you rather a collection of mushrooms because it hides under fallen coniferous and deciduous leaves. In that case the ball moss is found in mixed forests. They provide the moss the optimal air humidity. Ball moss is collected in private forests with gentle approach. In order to keep the harvest maintenance sustained it is allowed to harvest just 20- 30% of the area. This way the collected moss can grow up and we spare nature.

Moss wall made ball moss – processing

Ball moss is hand cleaned after the harvest. During the cleaning it’s freed from dirt, coniferous and deciduous leaves. That way it is prevented from damaging its form and structure. After that it’s naturally preserved with no harming and artificial substances. Preservation sucks the humidity from the ball moss but then it can return it into the room. Thanks to the created salty environment it doesn’t create convenient conditions for animals or mushrooms.
