Green Roofing in Cork

We’re passionate about the ways in which green roofs contribute to environmental sustainability. These innovative roofing solutions are more than just visually appealing; they’re a practical response to the pressing issue of climate change. 

By installing a green roof, we’re helping to reduce the urban heat island effect, improve air quality, and promote biodiversity in urban areas. We’re talking about a roof that doesn’t just protect your property, but also nurtures the environment in a myriad of ways.

These living roofs not only beautify the surroundings but also provide a haven for birds and insects, creating an organic ecosystem right above our heads. 

Here are some specific benefits of green roofs that make them an amazing choice for environmental sustainability:

• Urban Heat Island Mitigation: Green roofs absorb and retain less heat than traditional roofs, reducing the temperature of your building and surrounding areas. This contributes to lower energy consumption and decreased greenhouse gas emissions.
• Improved Air Quality: Green roofs capture airborne pollutants and atmospheric deposition, thus cleaning the air we breathe.
• Stormwater Management: They absorb rainwater, reducing the runoff that can overwhelm city sewers and pollute waterways.
