Green
roofs and roof gardens have enormous potential to reinstate the balance
of rainfall infiltration or transpiration within an urban environment. Tremendous
improvements can be made to air quality, wildlife population, visual enhancement
and geo-environmental balance.
Green roofs and gardens can also form a crucial component of SUDS drainage
systems.

- Ezidrain green roofs significantly reduce storm water run-off and have the potential to achieve zero water discharge from the green roof area.
- Rainwater
harvesting is incorporated as part of the green roof system to supply
irrigation to the living surface using a solar
(electric) pump.
- 1m2 of Ezidrain green roof can evapotranspirate up to 3lts of water per day into the local atmosphere, improving air quality and reducing pollution.
