LiveRoof® Soil and Edging

LiveRoof® Hoppit® - Truck to Roof Conveyors
LiveRoof® even facilitates installation, and with our co-engineered Truck to Roof conveyor, your installation time is greatly reduced. A semi-trailer will fit up to 52 Hoppits®, 18 modules each, which equates to 936 modules or 1872 square feet of coverage per load. Modules are quickly picked up with a telescoping forklift or crane (via stringer) and either held at the edge of the roof or directly over the roof surface in the area of module placement. Note: A filled 18-module Hoppit® can weigh as much as 1100 pounds. Size your lifting equipment accordingly, and remember that lifting capacity and stability decrease with arm swing/extension and boom height.

LiveRoof® Installation Guide
The LiveRoof® Installation Guide is available to all LiveRoof® customers and installers and represents graphically (in the future via DVD format) the most efficient standardized manner of efficiently handling and installing the LiveRoof® system. There is no need for you to reinvent the wheel when we can provide you the benefit of our experiences and material handling studies.

LiveRoof® Engineered Green Roof Soil
LiveRoof® Engineered Green Roof Soil is designed to be used in conjunction with the LiveRoof® module and to be the very best green roof soil on the market.  LiveRoof® Engineered Green Roof Soil™, a proprietary blend of the finest inorganic and organic materials, is supplied under license from LiveRoof, LLC, and is formulated under strictly controlled standards.

LiveRoof® Engineered Green Roof Soil™ is designed to:
  • be 95+% inorganic (by dry weight), as is the case with ecologically stable, sustainable, mature green roofs (92% in BC Canada). 
  • conform to German FLL granulometric standards
  • filter rainwater and buffer acid rain
  • effectively grow LiveRoof® plants
LiveRoof® Engineered Green Roof Soil™ weighs approximately 26 to 29 lbs./sq. ft. at 4” depth when saturated and fully vegetated with LiveRoof® plants.
