Used all over the world for green roofs, FOAMGLAS® exceptional compressive strength and resistance to moisture eliminates the problems associated with this type of construction. The consistently high moisture levels and massive loadings to the structure imposed by both the planting medium and the plants themselves can result in damage to the roof construction resulting in water ingress to the interior of the building. Root penetration in search of moisture cannot occur into FOAMGLAS® and it is also resistant to attack from insects and vermin.

Green
roofs are increasingly popular not only from an aesthetic view point
but because of their environmental benefits. The creation of green
areas on otherwise void flat surfaces adds greatly to the ecological
profile of the building and therefore its owner.
