However, transforming rooftops into productive green spaces requires roofing systems designed to bear additional loads, support vegetation growth, and provide water management solutions. Enter rooftop farming-ready shingles—a roofing innovation that merges durability with eco-friendly functionality.
At Scaffs India, we’re leading the way with load-bearing shingle systems designed specifically for green roofs and rooftop gardens, perfectly suited for Kerala’s urban and semi-urban architecture.
