Green Roof Outfitters

We met these guys at the Sustain SC conference last week and were really impressed with their green roof product. Basically, they manufacture small trays out of 100% recycled content that get planted with native drought tolerant plants. These trays sit directly on top of whatever roof you want to use, as long as the structure is strong enough to hold the extra weight.

The world is realizing the importance of having more sustainable practices, achieving greater environmental performance and efficiencies, and producing less of an environmental impact. The GRO Modular green roof system is a modern, cutting edge system of applying green roofs to most any situation. Green roofs have many benefits alone, but used in conjunction with the GRO Modular technology, the benefits increase exponentially, and can weigh heavily in a Cost-Benefit Analysis.

Unlike traditional green roofs, GRO Modular green roof systems offer easy installation and an instant green roof. This lightweight modular system arrives pre-planted and ready for placement. The all-inclusive GRO Modules include: a 100% recycled content container with a built in drainage & reservoir system, filter fabric layer, lightweight growing media and established hardy plants. Each component of this modular system is engineered to work synergistically with one another, creating an optimal environment for the green roof to thrive.
