environmental and sustainable solutions that create wildlife habitats, enhance biodiversity, as well as benefitting the buildings' occupants
Green Roofs
Bauder has a long and impressive history of green roofs throughout Europe and the United Kingdom.
Green roofs are achieving extensive popularity as eco friendly building incentives change the landscape of commercial construction. Bauder has been at the forefront of green roofing technology for years: we introduced our first green roof solution in 1982!
Our long experience in supplying green roofing technology has enabled us to develop and deliver a full range of eco friendly roof solutions for our clients. From lightweight sedum roofs, which will green almost immediately, to bio diverse and brown roofs, which are specifically designed to support a full wildlife habitat, and any recreational scenario for gardens, parks, allotments and sports facilities that can be envisaged.
Bauder roofs are your way to offset the carbon imprint of your next building.
- Biodiverse and Brown Roofs - replicate an ecological environment and provide a natural living habitat to encourage a wider species of flora, insect and fauna.
- Extensive Sedum Blanket - lightest weight option available with hardy, pre-cultivated sedum vegetation for instant greening of the roof
- Extensive Substrate-based Systems - greater depth of substrate allowing for a broader range of self-sufficient plants including grasses, herbs and succulents
- Intensive Recreational Roofs - where the design may include lawns, flowerbeds, shrubs, trees all intermixed with paths, driveways and patios. These roofs also include vegetable plots, sports grounds, and park land.
There are different waterproofing options available beneath the landscaping each with their own individual benefits.
