Improve building energy efficiency, create usable space.

Green roofs are part of the healthy city movement, absorbing noise pollution and creating a peaceful meditative environment with aesthetic appeal on building rooftops. Plus, green roofs are helping to increase property values.

Precision Blending Process

Plaisted Rooftop Garden Mixes are designed for extensive and intensive growing environments. They create a stormwater management system, improve energy efficiency of the building, and increase usable space for tenants. Plus, rooftop plants offer a naturally beautiful method to process airborne toxins through plant respiration.

Plaisted Rooftop Garden Mixes are engineered to retain a high percentage of a typical rainfall. We blend three types of rooftop materials. Depths vary depending on what types of plant materials are going to be used and what the roof weight load is designed to handle.

ACCUBLENDER

Our four-bin Accublender™ is used to create these mixes. It features a computerized blender with an on-board screen deck that removes oversized particles and a mechanical paddle wheel that ensures uniformity. It automatically adjusts for flow rates of material and stops the conveyor belt when feed bins need to be replenished.
