Reduced energy consumption and costs
Green roofs provide natural insulation, reducing the need for heating and cooling, which leads to lower energy consumption and cost savings.
Improved air quality and reduced urban heat island effect
Green roofs help to filter pollutants and reduce the urban heat island effect by absorbing and reflecting less heat than traditional roofs.
Extended roof lifespan and reduced maintenance costs
The protective layer of vegetation on green roofs shields the roof membrane from UV radiation and extreme temperatures, leading to a longer lifespan and reduced maintenance costs.
Stormwater management and reduced strain on drainage systems
Green roofs absorb and retain rainwater, reducing the strain on drainage systems and helping to manage stormwater runoff.
Increased biodiversity and habitat creation
Green roofs provide habitat for birds, insects, and other wildlife, contributing to increased biodiversity in urban areas.
