LiveRoof® is the only modular green roof system that uses Soil Elevator™ & Moisture Portal™ technology to unite the entire soil continuum.
This allows for the natural sharing of water, nutrients & beneficial organisms across the entire rooftop strata. It also minimizes hot, wet & dry zones & avoids compartmentalizing the growing medium into unnatural ‘grids’ as is the case with other modular systems.
By not compartmentalizing the soil into ‘grids,’ LiveRoof® functions as nature intended.
Natural Function
LiveRoof® ‘soil elevation’ design & Moisture Portals™ unite soil across the entire green roof strata for sharing, not compartmentalization, of water, nutrients & beneficial organisms. This allows for the plants to be healthier & hot, dry & wet spots are avoided.
No Photodegradation
To completely prevent photodegradation, LiveRoof® is subterranean with no exposed lips or edges.
No Air Gaps Between Modules
Uninterrupted continuum of soil eliminates air gaps for optimal R value, cooling value & stormwater absorption.
Proper Roof Top Drainage
LiveRoof® keeps the roof dry with drain channels that disperse water at 7.0 gallons per minute per linear foot.

Natural Beauty
The aesthetic advantages of LiveRoof are significant & during spring, summer, fall or winter, LiveRoof® looks like a beautiful meadow. Depending upon design, other systems may look man made, especially during the dormant season.
Subterranean Module Gives a meadow-like look with no ‘grid’ lines.
Natural Beauty LiveRoof®’s monolithic soil continuum & unique plant mixtures bring 4-season aesthetics. Soil & plants obscure modules all 12 months of the year.
Proven Soil
The industry’s best engineered soil, expected to last indefinitely.
Flexibility
LiveRoof® modules can be custom cut to create natural looking green roofs with sweeping curves & full vegetation from parapet to parapet. Other modular systems offer considerably less flexibility around drains, at edges & cannot be used on curved applications without creating large gaps.
LiveRoof® is an Instant Green Roof
Each LiveRoof® module arrives to the job site with fully grown plants inside the container & is simply set in place on the rooftop. The unique patent-pending Soil Elevators™ are then removed for a seamless fit. No need to start with a brown roof & farm it for years, hoping & waiting for it to become a green roof.
NOTE: The success & appearance of any modular or other green roof system is dependent upon numerous factors such as the designer’s specification, user’s adherence to specified maintenance, specific variations in plant type, planting density & adherence to proper installation.
