As specialists in design-led solutions for rooftop living, Wallbarn offers three key products: the M-Tray®, their pre-grown modular green roof solution; iDecking, a revolutionary system for installing quality composite & tropical hardwood decking; as well as their range of Adjustable Support Pedestalsfor suspended paving and timber decking, the most extensive in the UK.
Innovative Modular Green Roofing Solutions
M-Tray®, an innovative, modular green roof system makes installing sedum and wildflower green roofs incredibly easy, with far less disruption to both plants and structure than other methods. The modules are self-contained – the sedum within being mature and well-established – and simply click together to give a lush, seamless look and an instant green roof.
It is now widely acknowledged that green roofs are good for the environment: providing wildlife habitats and absorbing pollution and particulates from the atmosphere; protecting structures and waterproofing from the elements; dramatically reducing rainwater run-off; improving sound, vibration and thermal insulation and ultimately aiding the planning process.
The M-Tray® demonstrates Wallbarn’s commitment to making installing green roofs that much more viable.

Easy Installation Decking Systems
iDecking – an innovative decking system developed in close cooperation with architects, designers and qualified deck builders – uses an aluminium rail substructure to which decking boards are fixed without the need for clips or screws.
Their patented EasyClick and EasyChange systems alleviate many of the challenges associated with traditional deck building methods by super-simplifying the installation process.

According to a recent a recent report, San Francisco may be first US city to require green roofs on new buildings.
30 percent of all the land area in San Francisco is comprised of rooftops, but most are under-utilised, according to the San Francisco Planning Department. City supervisor Scott Wiener is offering a solution that builds on the measure passed earlier this year to require rooftop solar. If new legislation introduced September 6 is approved, San Francisco would be the first city “to pass requirements for green roofs.”
The San Francisco Planning Commission unanimously approved the legislation Wiener introduced. The existing solar mandate requires 15 percent of rooftops on buildings with 10 stories or less to include solar panels. The new legislation would go a step further: 30 percent of new roofs could be turned into green roofs or a blend of green roof and solar panels. Owners could include two square feet of living roofs or a blend of living roofs and solar as opposed to one square foot of rooftop solar panels. According to Green Roofs for Healthy Cities, their 11th Annual CitiesAlive Conference, hosted in San Francisco in 2013, helped inspire the legislation.
Offering a huge variety of benefits, green roofs can range from roof gardens with raised beds and pots, to rolled-out green carpets, to shed roofs containing planting cells that are filled with soil or compost and planted up with low growing perennials and grasses.
A fully established, mature green roof can be installed quickly and easily on difficult-to-access roofs by hand without the mess and disruption associated with traditional extensive green roof systems. M-Tray® is available as a pre-established, mature sedum product or with a native wildflower mix.

Reducing problems of water run-off and better storm water management
Building insulation
Aesthetic benefits
Providing habitats for birds and insects
Contributing to the improvement of urban air quality
Cooling the urban environment
Contributing to reduced noise pollution
Reducing the risk of fire spread between buildings
Another key benefit of adding a green roof to any type of building including sheds, garages and storage areas is the ability to reclaim the space they take up, as well as improving air quality and encouraging wildlife into the garden.
