Preserving the long term performance of living roofs
The trend for living roofs is here to stay.

Popular for their eco-friendly design and the space they can create for outdoor living, living roofs can also reduce energy costs – while creating an urban space for wildlife to thrive.

However, a living roof is a complex build-up that requires proper engineering and maintenance.

Over time, the effects of weather can impact how these roofs look and perform. To preserve the growth of the living roof, the physical properties of the roofs themselves must be protected.

Using the correct products from the beginning will help to protect the roof and prevent issues such as damage to the waterproof layer, and leaking.

Our wide range of living roof products will help ensure that your next living roof project is successful.

EdgeGuard: preserving boundaries and fire breaks
