ZinCo Extensive Green Roof SLOPING ROOF GREENING UP TO 25°

ZinCo GmbH

Description

Although

extensive green roofs are usually applied to flat roofs, they can also be used on sloping roofs. However, from an inclination of about 10°, the green roof structure must be adapted to the changed conditions. Shear-absorbing Floraset® FS 75 elements, a mat with higher water storage and a jute fabric that protects against erosion are then used.

Thanks to the transverse ribs, the elements interlock with the substrate layer and direct the earth thrust into the eaves edge. The particularly large water storage troughs of the elements ensure sufficient water retention on the green roof to supply the plants during dry periods.

Extensive green roof – the easy-care green variant to the gravel surface

Extensive green roofs are an ecological alternative to conventional surface protection, such as gravel. They are lightweight and have a low installation height. For extensive green roofs, we use proven plant communities that naturally cope with the site conditions found on roofs, such as sun, wind, drought, etc. An extensive green roof requires little maintenance. One or two maintenance cycles per year are usually sufficient here. This type of green roof is also suitable for sloping roofs.

Features

  • Moss-Sedum to grass-herb greening
  • Low
  • maintenance No
  • additional irrigation required Construction
  • thickness 10–20 cm
  • Weight 60–250 kg/m²

Extensive greening is carried out and operated at a relatively low cost. For example, the layer height is approx. 5–15 cm and the low weight is 60–150 kg/m², which also enables subsequent greening of existing roof surfaces without any problems. Another advantage is the manageable maintenance effort, because the plant communities of sedum, grasses and herbs used get by with natural precipitation. In addition to flat roofs, extensive greening is also suitable for pitched roofs.
