Wallbarn has provided its modular M-Tray® green roof system for the Radisson Blu Heathrow hotel. This project involved the greening of an existing bitumen rooftop overlooked by hotel rooms.
Trick access to the roof was overcome due to the portable shape of Wallbarn's specially-designed M-Trays®. They are easily transported to site by pallet and can then be stacked neatly onto a parcel trolley. Each M-Tray® unit is self-contained and needs no additional aggregate which means zero disruption, zero mess.
The M-Trays® were taken up onto the roof itself using a mini genie lift and slotted into position in a matter of hours. They were then dressed around the edges with gravel. Instead of taking many months to establish, Wallbarn’s M-Trays®, having mature, established root systems, are bedded-in within four months of installation and begin to flower with stunning results.
Installing Wallbarn’s M-Trays® system allowed the hotel to convert an unsightly bitumen rooftop into a green and vibrant sky garden for guests to enjoy from their bedrooms.
