Green Roof

Green Roof
There is often little space for greenery in urban areas. An ideal solution for this is greenery on the roof. A green roof is not only appealing to look at, it also offers many other advantages, such as water buffering, temperature regulation, sound insulation, air purification and it also encourages biodiversity. It's not just a Sedum roof that can be attractive, have you considered herbs on your roof, or vegetation specially selected to attract bees and butterflies? We are happy to advise you about the best application for your project.

Flat roof

Flat roof

Flat roofs are ideal as green roof. The system structure for a flat, water-retaining green roof consists of a drainage layer with filterfleece, extensive roof garden substrate, and a vegetation blanket.

Solar Sedum Roof

Solar Sedum Roof

The Solar Sedum Roof is a green roof solution including mounting systems for solar panels on flat roofs. This is a ballasted solar system for a safe and fast installation of the PV panels. The Sedum roof underneath the solar panels provides the necessary weight to secure the solar system, without the need to penetrate the roof surface. Additionally, the green roof can boost the energy yield of PV panels with 6 to 10%!

Solar Biodiverse Roof

Solar Biodiverse Roof

This green roof system not only offers a good basis for solar panels, but also gives local biodiversity an extra boost. It is a ballasted solar system, meaning that there’s no need to penetrate the roof surface. Take a look at the Solar Biodiverse Roof system structure here.

Pitched roof 5-25°

The structure of a shallow pitched green roof differs slightly from the structure of a flat roof. Because water runs off the roof more quickly, a thicker substrate layer is needed. The substrate gives the correct dose of nutrition to the plants and so ensures your green roof is indeed green.

Sempergreen has the perfect solution for pitched roofs. The Sedum-mix blanket type T has plastic reinforcement top and bottom. This makes this vegetation blanket – in combination with the correct system structure – very suitable for (steeply) pitched applications. Read here about how you can transform your pitched roof into a sustainable green roof.

Lightweight

Lightweight

Sometimes a flat roof support structure requires a lightweight green roof. Our special lightweight structure for flat roofs transforms your grey roof, with a pitch of 0 to 15 degrees, into a sustainable green roof almost instantly.

Biodiverse

Biodiverse

When construction is underway, the ecosystem is disturbed. With a biodiverse roof you can contribute to maintaining biodiversity in the urban environment. Join Sempergreen and do your part to counter bee mortality, opt for a green roof with a Bees & Butterflies blanket.

Detention Roof

Detention Roof

Our climate is changing. This leads to an increase in flooding due to heavy rainfall. The unique system structure of the Detention Roof ensures that rainwater is temporarily detained and runoff is delayed. Even when fully saturated with water, the Detention Roof is able to completely detain stormwater and to delay flow rates.
