Retention area Urban Microgreen

Maximum daily load 8 hours

Envilope Urban load-bearing partly green compositions are used for little-used mobile roads as well as parking areas with a requirement for minimal maintenance. The composition of Microgreen has a high ability to absorb rainwater underground and at the same time, due to photosynthesis, it also contributes to the stabilization of the local microclimate.

Less exposed parking AREAS
Spaces around shopping malls
Commercial areas
Parks and footpaths
