Vegetated Roof System Manufacturer Soprema Inc. Accepted for the RoofStar Guarantee Program October 25, 2024 Accepted for application in Vegetated Roof Systems Acceptance Criteria Refer to the RGC Standard for Vegetated Roofs System Summary SKYWATER^® Ballasted Hybrid Systems by SOPREMA^® are a combination of blue roof and green roof. This system reduces the volume of rainwater sent to the sewer in addition to decreasing its flow. Water is absorbed by the SOPRANATURE^® vegetated system as well as by SOPRARETENTIO BOARD, providing a higher retention capacity than a green roof alone. System Depth 107.9 mm (4-1/4") 336.5 mm (13-1/4") + Growing Media Depth 76.3 mm (3") 304.8 mm (12") + Vegetation Profile Sedums, dry prairie grasses, dry flower meadows, and vegetation with a range of water needs, inclusive of urban agricultural crops (suitable vegetation depends on the selection of growing media).
