Description

Covered membranes in roof structures are generally referred to as ballasted or protected roofs. The ballast can be concrete slabs, pebbles or soil as the basis for a green roof.

Even better protected

With protected roofs the membrane is protected against direct stress caused by climate and temperature fluctuations, tears, punctures and other mechanical damage.

Ballasted and Green Roofs

  • aesthetic design freedom
  • protection against external stress
  • increased fire safety

For both new builds and renovation

Our membranes for ballasted, green and turf roofs are suitable for both new build and renovation projects. They offer excellent quality and a long life.

Natural surroundings

Protected roofs can be used as an open space, recreational area or roof garden. These solutions offer great freedom in terms of aesthetics, contribute to more natural surroundings by using pebbles or plants, and provide better acoustics. The weight of the ballast requires the load-bearing structure to be engineered for the purpose.
