Cyclone Roofing was awarded the first Green Roof contract for the city of Charlotte, NC. This initial green roof endeavor is a research project by the city to determine which vegetation is best suited for installation on future projects in the city.

The green roof is a re-roof of 8,000 square feet on Discovery Place downtown. It consists of six specific areas of approximately 1,200 square feet of various vegetation over a Siplast membrane, and incorporates a Vector leak mapping system. Green roof specialist, Angie Durhman of Tecta’s Magco division, assisted in the direction of soil preparation and planting of the vegetation.

Tecta America has extensive expertise in the Green Roofing arena and has completed numerous high-profile green roof projects nationwide.
