What are Green Roof Systems?

Green roof systems are natural ecosystems established on waterproofing systems on roofs, parking lots, and terrace areas of buildings.

Why Should You Choose Them?

Green roofs improve the energy performance of buildings, urban ecology, and air quality without additional equipment, while providing innovative solutions to problems caused by rainwater.

The advantages offered by green roof systems can be summarized as follows:

  • Energy Efficiency: Green roofs enhance the thermal insulation of the buildings they are applied to, leading to energy savings. They reduce the temperature of the roof surface in summer and help maintain indoor warmth in winter, thus lowering heating and cooling costs and overall expenses.

  • Water Management: Green roof systems retain rainwater in proportion to the thickness of the soil in the system, drain it, and slow down the surface runoff, thereby reducing the burden on wastewater networks. This minimizes the risk of flooding.

  • Improvement of Air Quality: The plants in green roof systems not only produce oxygen but also capture airborne dust particles, enhancing the air quality of the city.

  • Sound Insulation: Green roofs absorb sound, reducing noise levels. They lower high-decibel sound frequencies below the noise threshold, creating quieter environments.

  • Space and Aesthetic Value: Green roofs provide an aesthetically pleasing appearance and allow for the creation of additional social areas, gardens, or relaxation spaces within the city.

  • Environmentally Friendly, Sustainable Production: Green roof systems are made from recyclable materials and require low energy for their production and installation. They are typically labor-efficient.
