Methods for freely designing roof greening, wall greening, and rooftop greening.
The Wet Jet green roofing method is a thin-layer greening system that can create a rich vegetative environment with minimal irrigation equipment and maintenance. While green roofs and green walls are often discussed with an environmentally friendly image, they actually rely on greening technologies that have a significant environmental impact. The Wet Jet has established a true ecological greening system by recreating the terraced rice farming seen in the mountainous regions of Southeast Asia using metal roofing technology. Even with a small amount of irrigation, water gradually spreads downwards like in terraced fields, ensuring adequate soil moisture across the entire planting area. Furthermore, despite being a thin-layer greening method with a low design load, it is capable of supporting a variety of plants from low slopes to vertical walls.
