When it came to specifying the new roofs at the former Walter Reed Medical Center site in Northwest Washington, managing stormwater collection and runoff was a high priority.

ZinCo’s roofing expertise, from urban farming to stormwater management and biodiversity, is highly complementary to Holcim’s existing roofing business and its overall mission to lead the transition to sustainable building.

The team replaced the building’s old roof with a low-maintenance roof garden system designed to alleviate stormwater runoff, extend the life of the roof, and add aesthetic value. 

SOPREMA®, Inc. has acquired Furbish, a sustainable development company focused on the deployment and maintenance of green roofs, living walls, stormwater management, and other green technologies for high-performance buildings.

Sustainability is at the forefront of people’s minds these days whether it's from growing environmental concerns, or a personal long-term commitment to the cause.

SOPREMA announced plans to open a 63,000 sq. ft., multi-purpose Building Envelope Supply (SOPREMA BES) facility in early 2022 in Carrollton, Texas.

Climate change isn’t just making the planet warmer. It’s also impacting everything from weather patterns to sea levels, causing excessive rain, record-breaking storms, devastating wildfires, and everything in between.
