Reduces Pollutants & Increases Oxygen Production

A green roof will filter the air moving across it. A study has shown that 10.76 sf of a grass roof can remove .44 pounds of airborne particulates from the air every year. The typical size of one Green Roof Outfitters’ module is 4 sf, so it would just take 2.5 of our modules accomplish this task. Another study found that 16.15 sf of grass roof can produce enough oxygen to supply one human with their yearly oxygen intake requirement. This is the equivilent of 4 Green Roof Outfitters’ modules.

The modules also filter pollutants that are transported down from the atmosphere by rain drops. If these great benefits can be had with just a few or our modules, think of the ramifications of having a whole roof full of modules….or a whole city full of green roofs!
