Increased energy efficiency
Green roofs provide natural insulation, reducing the need for heating and cooling, which in turn lowers energy consumption and costs.
Improved air quality
Green roofs help to filter pollutants and carbon dioxide from the air, leading to improved air quality and a healthier environment.
Reduced urban heat island effect
By absorbing less heat and providing natural cooling, green roofs can help mitigate the urban heat island effect, reducing overall temperatures in urban areas.
Extended roof lifespan
The protective layer of vegetation on green roofs shields the roof membrane from UV radiation and extreme temperatures, leading to a longer lifespan for the roof.
Stormwater management
Green roofs absorb and retain rainwater, reducing the burden on stormwater systems and helping to prevent flooding and erosion.
