Our sustainably produced boards made of 100% recycled mixed plastic form the substrate for this. This special roof structure also protects the green roof permanently against frost and thus the freezing of the roots.
Combine the protection for your bicycles with more habitat for plants and small animals: a valuable contribution to biodiversity!
The bicycle shelters are available immediately from Velopa.
