Increasing Green Infrastructure in Urban Region Bolstering the Market Growth of Green Roof

The rapid development of green infrastructure in urban regions owing to rising pollution levels is augmenting the market growth. As various governments are increasingly promoting sustainability by the utilisation of biodegradable resources to combat rapid climate change, the demand for green roofs is surging, which is invigorating the market growth. For instance, the Indian government announced in December 2020 that it is planning to develop green cities in every state.

The development of innovative and smart green roofs with automated maintenance and monitoring systems is anticipated to aid the market growth. The growing deployment of such roofs to enable efficient storm roofs management is also projected to propel the growth of the industry. Furthermore, the increasing research and development activities (R&D) to integrate photovoltaic cells in green roofs is estimated to contribute towards the market growth significantly. The rising trend of urban agriculture to increase the accessibility to organic and fresh products is also escalating the deployment of green roofs to utilise them for cultivation, which is projected to invigorate the market growth.

Rising Demand for Green and Sustainable Alternatives to Traditional Roofing to Invigorate the Industry Growth

The market for green roof is being aided by the growing awareness regarding rapid climate change, which is increasing the demand for greener and sustainable alternatives to traditional roofing. As green roofs enhance biodiversity while creating an optimal habitat for organisations, they are increasingly deployed in public buildings, hence bolstering the market growth. Moreover, the deployment of green roofs is increasing the energy-efficiency of buildings to boost sustainability.

The insulating properties of green roofs make them ideal for lowering the temperature in enclosed spaces, thus propelling the market growth. In addition, they also contribute to lowering utility bills while reducing maintenance costs. This, in turn, is increasing its deployment in commercial buildings to enhance their durability, which is expected to drive the market growth. Furthermore, green roofs boost the aesthetic appeal of roofing, due to which they are increasingly preferred in buildings and spaces, thereby propelling the market growth.
