advantages
With Sempergreen® vegetation blankets you immediately see an instant and mature green roof with little or no maintenance. A green roof with Sempergreen vegetation blankets has tremendous stormwater advantages with rain water retention of around 50-80% (depending on regional differences) and provides substantial energy saving.
The advantages are:
- Instant green
- Visually attractive appearance
- Simple, quick and easy to apply
- Minimum of 85% plant coverage upon installation
This is the highest in the industry, as most modular and bulk systems are installed with only 5-20% coverage and take 2-3 years to reach toe point our mats offer the moment you unroll them onto your roof.
- A lightweight solution (a green roof is possible starting from 4 lbs/square foot (100 kg/m²)
- most minimal substrate layer comparing to extensive systems
- Rain water retention of around 50%
- Uniform drainage and purification of rainwater
- Resistant to all weather conditions where people can live as well
- Biodegradable
- Suitable for nearly all types of roofs and slopes
- Insulates in summer and winter
- Outdoor grown material is winter hard and can sustain abise of weather better than any bulk or modularly grown crop as this almost always takes place inside of sheltered greenhouses
- Sound damping
- less damage done by bird because of 85%+ vegetative coverage
- little or no maintenance system
