ROOF TOP GROWING MEDIUMS
BAKED CLAY FINES AND CHIPS
When baked clay fines and chips are added to soil it creates a lightweight planting medium, an important factor in reducing dead-load on structures. Baked clay chips and fines are also effective in managing storm waters by allowing the water to percolate and saturate the amended soil. Their aggregate properties are non-toxic and will not degrade over time.
