The future of water management
Thanks to green-blue roofs or retention roofs, rainwater is collected and utilised. The water can be drained in case of excessive rainfall or reused.

Meander retention roof
This is a type of green roof specifically designed to buffer and delay a maximum amount of rainwater. This system uses an ingenious design that mimics the natural course of a river, hence the name "meander," which refers to the winding paths that rivers travel.
Retention roof Extensive
An extensive retention roof is a lightweight, low-maintenance green roof designed to collect and slowly drain rainwater, mainly planted with sedum, mosses, and grass-like plants. This type of roof has a thin substrate layer (6-20 cm) that helps in water retention without putting heavy strain on the roof structure.
Retention roof intensive
is heavier and requires more maintenance than an extensive roof and supports a greater diversity of plants, including shrubs and small trees. These roofs are designed to effectively buffer significant amounts of rainwater and maximise biodiversity. They provide space for recreational uses and can be aesthetically pleasing, depending on planting and design.

Construction of a green roof
Vegetation
In addition to different types of Sedum, you can also choose different types of herbs and wild flowers ( e.g. Thyme, carnations) but various bulbous plants can also add nice accents (e.g. Iris).
Substrate layer
Substrate layer containing a larger amount of organic matter. Thickness depends on the type of vegetation.
Filter layer
Separation layer between substrate and drainage. Allows excess water to pass through and makes the water in the drainage layer available to the vegetation through condensation.
Drainage layer
Drainage slabs with integrated drip lines for water irrigation or drainage using mineral rock (e.g. Bims).
Protection and absorption layer
Protection of the roof against mechanical damage; at the same time, it also buffers a quantity of water.
Roofing
Root-resistant roof waterproofing.
