A ZinCo green roof from Alumasc was specified to complement the sustainable design of the building which also included a wind turbine, a wood burning boiler and rainwater recycling, earning the scheme a BREEAM rating of ‘Very Good'. Installed by Alumasc's Approved Contractor Roofclad Systems of Durham, the extensive green roof is designed to evolve and flourish with notable ecological benefits, providing a natural habitat for plants and wildlife, while helping to reduce air and noise pollution, and assisting with rainwater retention and attenuation.
The green roof was applied over Derbigum high performance waterproofing membrane, also from Alumasc, for exceptional long-term performance and durability, warranted for 25 years. To complete the roofing package, Alumasc's Armaseam standing seam metal roofing system was installed on the adjacent school building.
