Vegetation: Consists of a mix of 20-30 varieties of wildflowers and meadow grasses. These are seasonal and the roof will lie fallow during Autumn and Winter.
Soil: The media mix (posh term for soil!) used is a special substrate (another posh word for soil!) prepared specifically for the GrufeTile, but particular mixes can also be prepared depending on the planting & project requirement.
Carrier: Made from recycled HDPE plastic, the carrier performs the following roles – a water reservoir, drainage layer, protection from excessive drying of roots from the airspace below, the cups greatly improve product handing making it easier to install. Impressive!
Installation: The GrufeTile is equipped with a nifty double-action coupling system: the tabs on the side of each part engage the edge in the gaps between tabs of the facing part. Smart!
