Green infrastructure

The group offers solutions and cultivated plants for green infrastructure, i.e. plant-based surfaces for roofs, facades and green areas in urban centres, through Veg Tech and Urban Green in Sweden and Norway, Veg Tech, Phønix Tag, and Hetag Tagdækning in Denmark, and EG-Trading Oy in Finland.

Bio-based green surfaces contribute to biodiversity by protecting roof membranes, providing better building insulation against cold and hot temperatures system, by absorbing large parts of the city’s noise, dust, and air pollution, thus improving both the micro and macro climates. Plant-covered roofs can absorb up to 50 – 80 percent of the rainwater falling on the roof, reducing, or delaying the flow of rainwater into the drainage and preventing sewers from becoming overloaded.

The wholly owned Swedish company Veg Tech also offers solutions for green infrastructure especially in urban areas, from parks to nature parks and open water.
