March 14, 2007—The GreenGrid Green Roof System, manufactured by Weston Solutions, Inc., was recently selected by Earth Pledge, a New York nonprofit corporation, for its two-year Green Roof Pilot Project.
In partnership with Earth Pledge, Weston provided an extensive, four-inch-deep GreenGrid green roof on a LEED-Platinum-certified office building in Santa Monica, California, designed and owned by David Hertz of Syndesis.
For the project, Weston partnered with Magic Growers nursery, the growing medium provider Agromin, and the irrigation suppliers Netafim and Dramm, who sponsored labor and materials.
The installation, one of the first in the Greater Los Angeles area, was filmed by Sundance Channel. It will be featured in “Works,” an upcoming Green programming block, starting April 16.
GreenGrid Green Roof System is a business of Weston Solutions, Inc., a leading environment and redevelopment firm delivering comprehensive solutions to complex problems for industry and government worldwide. For more information, see the Web site.
