Green Roof Brings Energy Savings to Buchholz Homes

In Buchholz, Germany, newly built terraced apartments feature vibrant green roofs using Sempergreen Sedum-mix mats and lightweight construction, creating sustainable, visually appealing rooftop gardens that blend seamlessly with the surroundings.

Lush Green Roofs for Buchholz Apartments

In the German town of Buchholz in der Nordheide, the new construction of four apartments has been provided with a beautiful green roof by gardener Holger Neisser. The terraced houses are only connected to each other at the corner and therefore offer a lot of personal freedom both inside the house and in the garden. A lush green roof has been installed on the roof surface with a slope of 15 degrees, which is connected at the corners to the adjacent roof. For this project, 150 m² Sempergreen Sedum-mix mats were applied in combination with a lightweight green roof construction.

Durable from head to toe

The green roof offers many benefits in terms of sustainability, the environment, and experiential value. The plants convert CO2 into oxygen and absorb fine dust from the air. A green roof also significantly reduces the need for air conditioning in the summer and provides thermal regulation in the winter, resulting in significant energy savings. In addition to the striking green roof, the new building is sustainable from head to toe. Within the energy concept of the new building, for example, a system for natural heat storage is applied through a heat pump.
