Features

Green roofs are increasingly being used on a wide variety of buildingsincluding schools, healthcare and city centre buildings.

Kingspan Envirodek™ is a structural green roof system that offers a range of sustainable and environmental benefits over traditional roofing systems. These benefits include:

• Enhancement of air quality, by lowering CO₂ levels
• Storm water attenuation
• Acoustics
• Promotion of biodiversity or retention of existing biodiversity
• Increasing the life expectancy of the roof.

For many modern buildings the difficulty for designers has been to find a roofing system which can carry the load of a green roof whilst also being:

• Cost effective
• Quick and safe to install
• Well insulated and energy efficient
• Quickly weather tight
• A lightweight decking support to intensive green roofs (as opposed to reinforced concrete deck).

The development of the Kingspan Envirodek™ structural insulated roof deck has resolved this difficulty and offers the following additional benefits:

• Installation rates of up to 1000m² per day with the aid of mechanical handling equipment
• Double spans of 6m can be achieved (see load span tables)
• Suitable for curved roofs down to 15m concave and 30m convex radius.
