Home Elements of the green roof

Elements of the green roof

Every layer of a green roof and terrace is built of specific elements, and they need to consider partucularities of each construction.
Green roof systems have the following layers: protection layers, drainage and water retention courses, separating and equalizing layers, the vegetation substrate and the vegetation itself. We use specific accessories too, like: control boxes, delineators, evacuation gutters, etc.
Our company provides consultancy and optimal solutions for green roofs and terraces starting from the design stage.

We deliver turnkey projects and long-term maintenance for intensive and extensive green roofs and terraces, vertical gardens, landscape roofs and many other ecological solutions by using durable and environment friendly materials and vegetation rolls specially designed for green roofs.

These green roof systems have numerous ecological, environmental and financial benefits and they can be landscaped even with lightweight or ultra-light vegetation, depending on the construction’s structure. Where the architecture allows, parks, relaxing areas, vertical gardens, parking places, playgrounds can also be included.
Our team of experts is ready to help with system solutions, estimates and consultancy in the field.
