Singapore green roof ecosystem
Singapore-focused opportunity

Large-scale public and private developments seeking certified green-building outcomes present near-term opportunities for demonstration projects and procurement.

Ecosystem Relevance

Positioned for urban nature, skyrise greenery and sustainable development

The company’s work intersects Singapore’s URA and NPARK initiatives to expand urban nature, park connectors and skyrise greenery. Large-scale public and private developments seeking certified green-building outcomes present near-term opportunities for demonstration projects and procurement.

We model custom detention solutions based on project-specific criteria which is a SuDS standard issued by CIRIA of U.K. on design storms, maximum allowable outflow rate, and retention & detention and the guides from PUB’s “Active, Beautiful, Clean Water” design rule.

Reference Projects installed for LTA and Garden by the Bay.

Technical Strength

Designed to support bids, compliance and project confidence

01
Stormwater Calculations

Support for project-specific stormwater calculations to strengthen design planning and performance justification.

02
Fire Resistance Certification

Fire resistance certificate tested on a system, not an individual component, to EN13501-5, Class B roof (t1), with resistance against spread of flame and radiant heat under SCDF code considerations.

03
Wind Reports & Testing

Wind reports backed by wind turbulence testing of more than 30m/s in line with LTA guide references.

SuDS Environment

What is Sustainable Urban Drain System (SuDS) Environment

Detention systems retain and detain water; they mimic the natural landscape to manage storm events by delaying the onset of runoff. They help prevent flash floods, combined sewer overflow, and meet municipal requirements.

Our innovative solutions have emerged, including blue roofs, green roofs and landscape.

The Future – Clean Air

Living moss as a design and indoor air quality element

Proof Xero Flor’s proprietary grow mats and moss cultivation draw on Xero Flor Germany's design team and University of Bonn Nees-Institute for the Biodiversity of Plants demonstrating that living moss indoors can help reduce VOCs (volatile organic compounds) by absorbing and breaking them down through natural processes.

It offers modest indoor air quality benefits alongside aesthetic appeal.
