Green Cities
One way to meet the challenges of the future is by building smart and resilient cities. Green roofs can be one of the measures that support more sustainable urban development.
Lush green roofs, rooftop gardens, and MATTAK (food roofs) offer several benefits, including
management of rainwater runoff, utilization of rooftop areas with new functions such as urban
food production. The idea of growing food on your own roof inspires enthusiasm. Residents and
businesses in cities and towns are increasingly seeking fresh, local produce. Property owners and
developers want to offer greener, more attractive outdoor areas to their tenants. Municipalities are
encouraging developers to consider green roofs in their projects, and architects include them in
their design proposals.
At MATTAK AS, we have the solutions and expertise needed to design, plan, build, and maintain
green roofs in general—and lush rooftop gardens and MATTAK (food roofs) in particular.

MATTAK and BREEAM-NOR
MATTAK supports BREEAM-NOR for many reasons — primarily because our green roofs, rooftop gardens, and food roofs are based on natural materials and locally adapted plant species. Our solutions can contribute to the certification process across all levels, with particular emphasis on areas such as rainwater management, ecological considerations, and the use of sustainable materials.
