DESCRIPTION:

Simplicity in design and flexibility are the hallmarks of the GreenGrid® Modular Green Roof System. The system was designed by engineering, roofing, and horticultural experts to produce an efficient, integrated green roof product. GreenGrid® offers a modular design that arrives pre-planted, grown out to desired plant coverage, and ready for installation. Modules are made in the USA from 100% recycled plastics and the components can be hoisted to the roof via elevator, forklift, or crane, and quickly installed. Modules can be placed directly on the roof membrane or on many other surfaces with adequate structural capacity.

GreenGrid® modules are lightweight compared to many other green roof systems. The Ultra-Extensive (2.5-inch depth) modules—supporting only sedum species—weigh approximately 11-13 pounds per square foot (wet). The Standard Extensive (4-inch depth) modules—supporting mainly sedums, and some other native and perennial plant species—weigh approximately 18-22 pounds per square foot (wet). The new GreenGrid G3 Extensive (4-inch depth) modules—also supporting mainly sedums, ansd some other native and perennial plant species—weigh approximately 21-25 pounds per square foot (wet).The Intensive (8-inch depth) modules—supporting a large variety of ornamental perennials and grasses—weigh approximately 36-44 pounds per square foot (wet) and up depending on growth media composition and plant selection. Modules can be easily arranged or rearranged to suit the needs and desires of the client. Most importantly, roof maintenance and repair is simple—modules can be easily moved should roof repair/maintenance be required, and then put back in place.
