Inspiration & advice

At the Domein Lepelem event venue in De Haan, a 2,700 m² grass car park was installed using ECCOdal grass grids, fitting the rural look of this historic 14th-century farmstead. The car park provides sufficient load-bearing capacity for visitors, remains permeable to water, and at the same time preserves the green character of the estate.

ECCO Products has secured a fine recognition: ECCOsedum, our modular green roof system, has been chosen by Belgian construction professionals as the winner of the Dobbit Innovation Award in the Garden Materials category.

Green roofs are quickly gaining importance in towns and cities. They store rainwater, improve insulation and bring nature closer to people. That’s why more and more property developers, architects and contractors are opting for a professional green roof system, such as a well-designed solution using sedum tiles installed with the correct build-up.

A sedum roof like the ECCOsedum system is low-maintenance, but not completely maintenance-free. To keep the roof in top condition, a small amount of maintenance is still needed. Luckily, that’s quick and easy to do!

Green roofs are an ideal way to make a city more sustainable. The roofs not only add aesthetic value, but also offer numerous functional benefits.

In the castle gardens of Château de la Touche d’Amour, owners Océanne and Yoan chose a combination of ECCOgravel gravel grids and CORE Edge powered by ECCO in corten steel.
