Ballasted and Green Roofs

Green roofs are becoming more and more popular, especially in densely populated urban areas, where it’s important to use the available roof space. Green areas and roof terraces increase value both for property developers and those who live in or use the buildings

Protan BlueProof Green combines water attenuation with green roof solutions. This is the roof of the future, where the roof surfaces are used in a sustainable manner to create increased value and quality of life. At the same time, it protects the streets and drainage network against torrential rain and flooding.

Roofs with a thick layer of soil are called intensive green roofs. Thick layers of soil; for example, on roof gardens for vegetable cultivation, make special demands on the membrane underneath.

Turf roofs are beautiful and traditional and are common on country cottages, especially in Scandinavia, where Protan is located. With a turf roof membrane from Protan, you get a safe and solid substrate on which the turf can grow.

Ballasted roofs can be used for recreational areas. The weight of the ballast requires the load-bearing structure to be engineered for this purpose.

With a membrane from Protan, you have the foundation for many enjoyable times out on the balcony or terrace. Protan’s terrace membranes are a safe solution that ensure a long lifespan for your outside area. Protan has solid and durable systems to protect verandah and balcony floors against damp, mould, roots and corrosion.
