IGLU’® GREEN ROOF IS A SYSTEM OF GREAT ENVIRONMENTAL SIGNIFICANCE AGAINST THE CONTINUED OVERBUILDING OF OUR CITIES FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF ROOF GARDENS AND GREEN ROOFS TO PROTECT THE WATERPROOFING, AND WITH A GUARANTEED LIFE OF THE GARDEN. The main problem of green roofs was to adjust the drainage to prevent the death of the vegetation due to excessive stagnation or lack of water. Today it is possible to adjust the drainage of roof gardens thanks to Iglu’® green roof whose surface area allows for adequate water storage and, at the same time, for the drainage of excess water through the “overflow” holes. Creating a roof garden the with Iglu’® green roof system can satisfy the public administrations requirements in terms of building parameters, energy saving, and reducing and mitigating the release of water into the sewer system. Control of meteoric waters: the green roof with Iglu’® green roof system has a high capacity to retain and store water: up to 90%. Improvement of the macro- and micro-climate: green roofs humidify the air and contribute to decrease the global warming. Sound insulation: green roofs using the Iglu’® green roof system mitigate the action of sound and electromagnetic waves, preventing them from entering the building. Improvement of air quality: atmospheric dust is retained and harmful substances are filtered and purified by the vegetation. Ecological balance habitats for animals and plants are re-created with the formation of ecological corridors. Mitigation of environmental impact: nature is integrated into the buildings, helping to requalify and ennoble the urban settings, reducing their visual impact.
