 INTRODUCTION

More and more large cities are greening their roof terraces.

It's an ecological approach, because green roofs recuperate rainwater, make the environment much more beautiful and even improve thermal comfort on the top floor.

Green roofs, along with green walls, are and will be a necessity for new buildings and renovations to improve air quality and help reduce CO 2 emissions.
