WGG (White Grey Green)

The EQUUS SOPREMA DUOTHERM Insulated Green Roof system encompasses a DUO two-layer waterproofing membrane, a vapour barrier, and thermal insulation with a growing medium to create an ecological and aesthetic system suitable for use on metal, concrete or plywood substrates.

The system is ideal for roof gardens and/or similar situations including planter boxes and podium levels, however predominantly where soil overlays and plants and grass is to thrive. There are several benefits to having an Equus system for a green roof concept; the two-layer waterproof membrane is formulated to be root resistant, the system provides thermal and sound insulation and provides a natural filter for rainwater.

  • CodeMark Certified System.
  • BRANZ Approved System.
  • Complies with the New Zealand Building Code.
  • Warranties available when used in conjunction with the correct specification and applied by an Equus Certified Applicator.

Why choose a warm roof?
  • Specific project design with condensation risk analysis (CRA) and wind load calculations to ensure the best system available for the buildings requirements.
  • Condensation Control – A warm roof moves the dew point to the outside of the structure, ensuring there is no condensation build up in the ceiling cavity.
  • No condensation build up negates the need for mechanical venting, causing less penetrations in the membrane.
  • Energy Cost savings are maximized with less need for heating or cooling throughout the building.
  • Creates more space within the ceiling for services.
  • Light-weight system, strong and flexible for resistance to seismic movement.
