Description
SOPRANATURE’s TOUNDRA BOX is a patented pre-vegetated system.
UNITS PER SKID: 42
Material Use:
The SOPRANATURE TOUNDRA BOX is a pre-vegetated modular green roof system designed for use on green roofs, garden terraces, and plaza decks. It provides an instant vegetative cover with a high percentage of plant coverage at installation, contributing to stormwater management, thermal insulation, and aesthetic enhancement of rooftop environments.
System Components:
The TOUNDRA BOX system consists of the following components:
- A modular box made of durable polypropylene
- Removable side boards (also polypropylene)
- A non-woven polypropylene filter cloth
- A specially formulated growing medium
- A pre-cultivated mix of sedum species, with optional flowering and grass varieties for biodiversity
Applications:
This system is ideal for:
- Extensive green roofs
- Garden terraces
- Plaza decks
- Urban landscaping projects requiring pre-vegetated solutions
Application Details:
Installation involves placing the TOUNDRA BOX units with their side boards intact. The side boards are removed progressively, leaving the last row in place to support the substrate. After installation, immediate saturation watering is required to ensure proper establishment of the vegetation. The system is designed for quick deployment and minimal maintenance, with ≥90% vegetation coverage at the time of installation.
Special Notes:
- The TOUNDRA BOX is compatible with SOPRANATURE green roof systems and should be used in conjunction with appropriate waterproofing and drainage layers as specified by SOPREMA.
- The plant palette includes a wide variety of sedum species, with optional flowering plants and grasses to enhance biodiversity. Availability of specific plant species may vary by region and season.
- The system has a unit weight of 106.0 to 124.2 kg/m² (21.7 to 25.5 lb/ft²) and a water retention capacity of 45.6 L/m² (1.1 US gal/ft²), as per ASTM standards.
- Wind resistance is tested to CSA A123.24, withstanding up to 200 km/h (124 mph) including safety factors.
- For long-term storage, the TOUNDRA BOX should be kept out of direct sunlight in a ventilated area, and stacked pallets should not be stored for more than 48 hours without consulting SOPREMA.
- The system is designed to be adaptable to various hardiness and climate zones; consult a SOPREMA representative for region-specific recommendations.
This modular vegetative solution offers a sustainable and efficient approach to green roofing, with ease of installation and immediate visual impact.
