ANS GrufeKit Green Roof System - Sedum

Green roof system for quick and easy installation using a protection fleece plus GrufeTiles, which includes sedum and are clipped together on the protection fleece. The GrufeTiles also protect the waterproofing for a longer-lasting roof. No immediate aftercare is required at installation. Each GrufeTile comes to site fully established with 12-month pre-grown vegetation, eliminating the need for irrigation.

The GrufeKit can be laid directly on top of the waterproofing surface with the protection fleece. While this can save costs, the side view of the module may not be desirable for some projects. A stone border can also provide a pleasing visual effect. In some cases, this is required on commercial buildings as a firebreak by planning authorities.

The aluminium GrufeGuard is optionally available for a more professional finish. A standard parapet or upstand is a good way to finish the roof and the GrufeKit can either run to the upstand or have a stone margin.

Sloped roofs with a gradient of 16° or less can be treated as a standard flat roof. For gradients more than 16°, either GrufeGuard (fixed to the waterproof membrane using IFPs across the roof in front of the modules) or 4 x 2" restraining timber battens can be installed prior to waterproofing, depending on roof conditions (battens require a gap for water drainage every 1.5 m).
