Reduced energy costs
Green roofs provide natural insulation, reducing the need for heating and cooling, which can lead to significant energy savings.
Extended roof lifespan
The vegetation and soil on green roofs act as a protective layer, shielding the roof from UV rays and extreme temperatures, ultimately extending its lifespan.
Improved air quality
Green roofs help to filter pollutants and carbon dioxide from the air, leading to improved air quality in urban areas.
Stormwater management
Green roofs absorb and retain rainwater, reducing the burden on stormwater systems and preventing runoff, which can contribute to flooding and pollution.
Environmental benefits
Green roofs contribute to urban biodiversity, reduce the urban heat island effect, and mitigate the impact of climate change by sequestering carbon and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
