A Drainage board is used in green roofing systems to ensure excess water is removed from the roof, whilst making sure there is enough water retention for the summer months.

Green roofing is a great addition to any building and has more benefits than we could list, but here are a few:
Reduce your Environmental Impact
Green roofs are designed with plant growth in mind. Being self-sufficient, they absorb rainwater and improve the local air quality by removing carbon dioxide and producing oxygen. They also create a peaceful and natural habitat where wildlife can thrive. Promoting biodiversity is great for anyone; whether you’re expanding your green garden or in an urban area looking to be one step closer to nature.
Protects your property
The vegetation layer is a great way to help with urban flooding. Green roofs act as a natural water retention and will absorb rainwater therefore, stormwater runoff and flooding will be significantly reduced. Not only does it protect your property from flooding, but also improves the lifespan of your roof. Soil and vegetation act as a natural insulation layer, protecting the membrane from UV radiation and temperature changes.
Reduces Energy Consumption
Green roofs are designed to absorb and retain heat, keeping your home cooler in the summer months and warmer in the winter months; reducing your energy costs in the process. Along with being energy efficient, they also do a great job acting as a sound barrier, reducing outside noise pollution. This is especially useful if you live near a busy road.
Reduces Urban Heat Island Effect
Green roofs can help to reduce the urban heat island effect, which is when cities experience higher temperatures than surrounding rural areas due to the concentration of buildings and other heat-absorbing materials. Urban heat island effect impacts cities, causing them to experience higher temperatures than rural areas due to large buildings which absorb heat. Green roofs help reduce this by providing an extra layer made from vegetation and soil which absorbs and reduces the heat from the air.

A green roof system is a type of roof that property owners choose to install due to its sustainable and eco-friendly properties. In addition to the environmental benefits of green roofs, the appearance also serves as a practical advantage for these types of roofs, bringing in a natural aesthetic for buildings.
Green roof systems are typically made up of several layers. This normally includes a protective fleece, drainage board, substrate (soil) and the vegetation layer.
Yes! A green roof is part of climate-proof construction, which is an initiative to create construction buildings with the intent to help the environment - or at least make it less harmful for the environment.
Green roofs are commonly installed for visual and environmental benefits. Green roofs encourage biodiversity to flourish as well as protecting the waterproofing below. They are becoming increasingly popular on new builds in an aim to reap the many benefits.
Green roofs protect the actual roof membrane from environmental hazards such as harsh weather, UV radiation, and other hazards.
As well as this, a green roof also provides other features such as air purification, indoor temperature regulation, and rainwater buffer.
Green roofs last an average of 45 years. This lifespan can vary depending on the quality of the waterproofing below and how well maintained they are.
Yes. Drainage is one of the most important aspects of green roofs, as even though the vegetation requires water to thrive, it is important that the green roof does not become waterlogged. If the system is unable to drain effectively then it is likely that there will be structural damage.
