Sedum Roof Enhances Comfort and Property Value

In Vic, northwest of Barcelona, an apartment building’s parking roof was transformed with Sempergreen Sedum blankets. The vegetation improves the view, cools the building in summer, insulates in winter and extends the roof’s lifespan, combining beauty, comfort and sustainability.

Multifunctional surface

Every part of the roof contributes. Rainwater is buffered and nature is given room to grow.

Climate adaptive design

The roof stores water during heavy rainfall and helps cool the surroundings during summer heat.

Biodiversity in the built environment

A diverse planting plan attracts pollinators, birds and native insects. This turns the roof into a thriving ecosystem.

A natural rooftop oasis

The roof of this apartment building’s parking area in Vic, Spain, has been covered with Sempergreen Sedum blankets. Located 65 km northwest of Barcelona, Vic experiences cool winters and hot summers. The new green roof not only enhances the view, but also provides cooling in summer and extra insulation during winter.

Natural protection

By covering the roof with Sedum, it is shielded from the elements like sun, rain, wind and temperature fluctuations, significantly extending the lifespan of the waterproofing. The Sedum plants absorb and reflect sunlight while retaining rainwater within the vegetation, substrate and drainage layers. Its natural, sustainable appearance, combined with lower energy costs and a longer roof life, increases both comfort and property value.
