Why Use rooflite® Certified Green Roof Media? |
The rooflite® Advantage: |
rooflite® Support for Eco-Roofs |
|
Green roofs differ from a natural environment as they are on top of a building and are not connected to the natural ground. rooflite® Certified Green Roof Media is lightweight and performance characteristics have been optimally engineered for this unique environment. It is critical that rooflite® soils can drain and retain water simultaneously and that they work even in very shallow systems. rooflite® products must also function long-term without jeopardizing the building below. Healthy plant growth and proper green roof performance strongly depend on using the right growing media. [...] |
