The system build-up “Steep Pitched Green Roof”, based on the ZinCo Georaster® elements, enables the installation of green roofs with slopes exceeding 20° and up to 35°

In the midst of the beautiful landscape of the wheat fields of Tierra de Campos in Villamartín de Campos in the Province of Palencia/Spain, the company “Farming Agrícola“ have built a modern and stunning office building with an impressing 800 sqm of green roofs. The design and build of these green roofs have been a technical challenge due to the different slopes, which vary from 4° in the flat areas to 20°, 40°, and 45° in the steeper areas.

Wimbledon Grounds is a mixed-use regeneration masterplan with a high profile residential development. Within the residential area 14.000 sqm of Blue Roofs has been installed. The ZinCo stormwater management system combines the benefits of green roof or transitable areas with an efficient flood prevention tool.
Pedestals are perfect for roof walkway and terrace floorings. The reason is that roofs often do not have the load-bearing capacity to carry the weight of the base layer, the bedding material and the flooring, and the material is also awkward to transport and distribute with this design. On the other hand, it is easy to use the well-known ZinCo Elefeet® pedestals that are now being launched on the market in a new and expanded version that includes a rail system. A pedestal-based installation system like this has to be accurate and flexible, which the ZinCo system is thanks to a comprehensive range of accessories. Installation is now quicker and more stable.
