Controlled Water Management in Green Roof Systems

Modern buildings increasingly integrate environmentally friendly and energy-efficient solutions through green roof systems. The long-term performance and efficiency of these systems depend heavily on the quality of the drainage layer used.

TekDrain GGF 20/200 is a high-strength green roof drainage board manufactured from HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene). With its high load resistance and durable structure, it optimizes water management, improves green roof performance, and extends the service life of the roofing system.

Product Description

TekDrain GGF 20/200 is a high-performance drainage board produced from HDPE, offering excellent resistance against:

  • Plant roots
  • External environmental conditions
  • Chemical effects
  • Microbial degradation

Its specially designed studded surface stores rainwater and prevents vegetation from drying out. Excess water is directed through drainage channels toward the parapet, ensuring roof safety while supporting efficient water management.

Product Features and Advantages

High Compressive Strength

With a compressive strength of 200 kN/m², TekDrain GGF 20/200 is suitable for green roof applications exposed to high loads, including landscaped areas above parking structures.

Water Storage and Drainage Balance

The system stores 7 L/m² of water, helping plants meet their natural water requirements while safely directing excess water toward drainage points.

Energy Efficiency

By supporting the thermal performance of green roof systems, it helps reduce:

  • Cooling costs during summer
  • Heating costs during winter

Environmentally Friendly HDPE Material

The recyclable HDPE structure provides resistance against:

  • Chemicals
  • Microorganisms
  • UV exposure

while supporting sustainable construction practices.

Urban Water Management

The controlled drainage system reduces pressure on urban drainage infrastructure by managing rainwater flow efficiently.

UV Protection

Helps protect roof layers against harmful sunlight exposure and contributes to improved thermal comfort.

Applications

  • Terrace roofs
  • Green roofs above parking structures
  • Vegetated roof systems
  • Landscaped building roofs
  • Urban gardens
  • Green façade and landscape applications

Installation Method

After installing the root-resistant membrane, İzoTeknik 5000 or 6500 series is placed. Then, TekDrain GGF 20/200 boards are installed side by side.

A GeoTeknik 1100 PP geotextile layer is placed above the drainage boards to optimize water retention and drainage balance while supporting healthy plant growth.

Packaging and Storage

Packaging

Sheets:

  • 2.5 x 1.2 m

Rolls:

  • 2 – 2.5 x 20 m

Storage Conditions

  • Sheets should be stored horizontally
  • Rolls should be stored vertically
  • Long-term direct sunlight exposure should be avoided

Environmental Benefits

TekDrain GGF 20/200 provides more than drainage performance. It contributes to:

  • Improved energy efficiency
  • Reduced carbon emissions
  • Better urban rainwater management
  • Sustainable green building solutions

The vegetation layer also protects the building from solar radiation and contributes to improved urban air quality.
