Installation

Manufacturer's standard.

Guidance for specification option:

  1. Install Radmat G12 Geotextile Filter Fleece over the roof surface and up all upstands, ensuring enough length is left around the installation for the G12 to wrap up the sides of the SWG Geocells, and enough to overlap a minimum 150 mm onto the top of the SWG Geocells.
  2.  Lay SWB Blue Roof Geocells, clipping adjacent panels to each other using the SW Cross Connectors ensuring each SWB Blue Roof Geocell is correctly oriented for the clips to meet.
  3. Cover with Radmat G12 Geotextile Filter Fleece ensuring minimum 150 mm overlaps.
  4. Immediately cover with the specified roof finish (green roof/paviors/ballast).
