    Quick and Simple Green Roof Installations

    November 1st, 2016

    Wallbarn has developed a new, improved design for the M-TRAY® modular green roof system for 2016. This pre-grown sedum green roof product is supplied in easy-to-handle plastic tray units.

    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.

    Quick and Simple Installations

    Fully established a 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.

    Recent Examples

    Because the M-TRAY® comes as a complete kit, this recent installation came together with the absolute minimum of fuss because all the measuring and propagating has already been carried out by Wallbarn.

    Some of the benefits of installing a green roof include:

    • Reducing problems of water run-off and better stormwater 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.
