With the URBAN ONE, you can install a green roof without much effort. We recommend a roof load increase of 300 kg per m2 to ensure your roof can withstand the high loads of a green roof over the long term. And to ensure the green roof is installed neatly along the edges, we recommend always ordering a parapet riser.
Green roofs offer a variety of benefits, both for the environment and for the owner. Here are the key advantages in detail:
Improving air quality: Green roofs filter dust and pollutants from the air and produce oxygen.
Promote biodiversity: They provide habitat for insects, birds and other small animals.
Reduction of the urban heat island effect : Green roofs help reduce temperatures in urban areas by absorbing sunlight and releasing evaporated water.
Rainwater retention: They store rainwater, reduce runoff, and relieve pressure on the sewer system. This can prevent flooding.
Protection against weather influences: The green roof protects the roof waterproofing from UV radiation, temperature fluctuations and mechanical damage.
Less wear and tear: The protective layers significantly extend the lifespan of the roof.
