Green Living Technologies
Green Roof Systems

• Pre-Grown
• Does not disturb existing roof, non-invasive installation.
• Installed in a neat and timely manner
• Allows for immediate benefits
• Low maintenance
• Flexible, easily shaped to fit around roof top objects, can cut circular patterns.
• Can be dismantled and reassembled in sections
• Can handle sloped (<20 degrees) or flat roof tops
• Lightweight suitable for commercial, industrial and residential.
• Locally grown for your region
• Because it is pre-grown it eliminates plant establishment costs and maintenance.
• Can be fitted for undulations
• 100% flexibility for any application
• Weighs approx. 12-15 lbs per sf saturated
• Ideal for roofs with a low load bearing capacity
• We are a sustainable resource company
• Inexpensive...Less per sf than a brick patio or walkway.
• DYK over 65% post-consumer recycled materials!
• The drainage carrier has a built in water reservoir with overflow, preventing the plants and growing media from drying out.
• In addition the moisture retention mat / root stabilizer and growing media naturally wicks water horizontally, the other system simply lets the water drain!
• Unlike natural fiber mats (Hemp) the Green Living™ Roof moisture retention will not breakdown over time.

Other Layered Systems

• Requires multiple layers of material (Primer, Ruberized Asphalt, Root Block, Insulation, Filter Fabric, Growing Media, Plant Material)
• Installation permanently attached to existing roof, making roof repair a costly expense
• Increased installation cost due to nature of supplies and labor
• Increased maintenance cost due to imature plant material, almost an additional $2.00 per sq. foot.
• Increased labor to manually plant material
• Adds excess weight of materials to roof
• Can not be applied to some existing roofs
• Installation time is doubled and tripled
• DYK that most of the other green roof companies are really waterproofing companies? They want to sell you new membranes for your roof.
• DYK other layered systems can cost from $25.00+ per sf?
• DYK to fix your roof you would have to tear apart the entire green roof. With a Green Living Technologies system you simply remove the panels fix your roof and replace them!
• Does this company do a water leak test? Account for a structural engineer to evaluate the roof load capacity? Designate point loading?
• Does not have a drainage layer with the ability to hold water! This system requires consistent watering and irrigation.
