Green roofs and Walls performance
Dynamically Innovate
There are many good reasons for greening up buildings and infrastructure. Over 30 years of research in Europe have shown, that buildings perform better with green on top, outside and inside. The positive effects are also measurable on city quarter level.
On the technological application level we distinguish between extensive and intensive greenery and specialized applications such as biosolarroofs or shading climber curtains.
Nature on buildings provides habitats for birds and pollinators- being surrounded by green is as well good for people:
- Stresslevel low
- Enhanced creativity
- More Productivity
- Enhanced concentration
- Faster recovery
