Reduced Energy Consumption
Green roofs provide natural insulation, reducing the need for heating and cooling, which in turn lowers energy consumption and utility costs.
Improved Air Quality
Green roofs act as natural air filters, removing pollutants and particulate matter from the air, thereby improving overall air quality in urban environments.
Stormwater Management
Green roofs absorb and retain rainwater, reducing the burden on stormwater systems and preventing runoff, which can lead to pollution of waterways.
Extended Roof Lifespan
The protective layer of vegetation on green roofs shields the underlying roof membrane from UV radiation and extreme temperatures, extending the lifespan of the roof.
Urban Heat Island Mitigation
By absorbing less heat and emitting it back into the atmosphere through evapotranspiration, green roofs help mitigate the urban heat island effect, reducing overall temperatures in urban areas.
