Lightweight Green Roof, Good Stormwater Retention - XF301 Sedum Standard
XF301 Sedum Standard is an extensive green roof system ideal for retrofits and new builds. This loose-laid system uses a low-maintenance pre-vegetated sedum mat that includes up to 10 species of plants. The vegetation mat is grown locally outdoors, harvested like sod, and rolled out on top of baselayers.
Features
• All system components come in rolls; baselayers and vegetation.
• Easy to transport, install, and maintain.
• Good 'water retention-to-weight' ratio.
• No 'loose' growing medium for a clean, fast, and simple installation.
• Provides cover and increased protection to the waterproofing membrane.
• Retractable, if necessary, for easy roof access.
Efficient water-retention layers hold 60 per cent more rainfall compared to typical growing medium of the same thickness while remaining 20 per cent lighter in weight. The result is a supremely effective stormwater management solution without excessive loading.
The Xeroflor system also offers a seamless integration of extensive and
intensive green roof features with a custom planting option. Varying depths of
growing medium create topographic variation and increased biodiversity.
Independently tested for root-resistance, fire and wind resistance per the
Canadian Standards Association (CSA) A123.24-15, Standard test method for
wind resistance of modular vegetated roof assembly.
