Green roof perimeter.

Columbia green technologies will provide the appropriate green roof or amenity deck system for your project rather than a one size fits all approach. Finish your green roof off with practical stylish edging. Find out more here. Designed and tested by certified green roof professionals our high grade corrosion resistant aluminum edging is made with over 90 recycled material.

The green roof concept has seen wide spread acceptance within the construction community. Some roofs are finished with substantial architectural build ups such as concrete pavers or stone. Perimeter vegetation barriers offer protection regulation compliance. The allowable depth of the green roof is determined by the load capacity that can be allocated to it.

If there will be a gravel perimeter the retaining edge will separate the soil and gravel and does not need to be attached. The result is a cooler roof decreasing the buildings energy consumption and reducing the heat island effect. Removing unnecessary finishes may provide sufficient capacity for a green roof of equal weight. Optigreen retaining edge should be installed approximately 30 from roof edges with roof drains and 18 from other edges.

Thus the compatibility of safety features on accessible green roofs such as railings and lighting fixtures must also be considered. Ultra clean edge is sold by the lineal foot in 4 foot lengths or by custom lengths per your project spec.
