GREEN ROOF SYSTEM FOR RIB-ROOF ROOFS

IT IS SO GREEN WHEN IT TURNS GREEN. These winged words apply immediately to RIB-ROOF metal roof systems because with the newly developed complete green roof system for RIB-ROOF Evolution and RIB-ROOF Speed 500, extensively planted roof areas can be laid quickly, safely and economically. This way you protect the building, the investment and even make a little contribution to the whole Globe. The RIB-ROOF Green Roof: ecologically and economically sensible, therefore simply future-oriented.

Green roofs are conquering the cities. Barcelona, Paris, Singapore are leading the way. Bremen, Hamburg and Stuttgart are making their first attempts to promote green roofs at the local level. Berlin follows suit with a „1000 Green Roofs“- programme for the capital. In view of major ecological problems, there is a growing necessity to create green areas in large cities. Roof surfaces are a good and easy way to make use of available areas for improving the urban climate.

IT IS WORTH HAVING IT GREEN RAINWATER MANAGEMENT Rainwater runoff is reduced and held up by the Zambelli green roof. This leads to a reduction of the construction costs as for example no rainwater retention basins are necessary.
