Zincolit® Plus, Zincohum and the Zinco System Substrates are offered in different delivery options. Depending on the size, accessibility and load bearing capacity of a roof surface, one of the methods listed below will be particularly suitable.
With all methods, care must be taken to ensure that the roof surface is not statically overstressed at any point (e.g. by System Substrate / Substrate Soil / Growing Medium mounds)! Boards or Big Bags may therefore only be placed on a stable substrate.
Open/loose goods:
Open goods are suitable where wheel loaders can be used, the System Substrate / Substrate Soil / GrowingMedium is to be picked up directly by special vehicles or applied with flexible bulk containers or the Zinco Turbobag®. By slewing the crane boom, the flexible bulk container can be used to coarse-spread the System Substrate / Substrate Soil / Growing Medium during application.
Big Bag:
Big Bags are particularly suitable for medium and large areas where a construction or mobile crane is available, or also for small areas if the material can be applied directly to the roof surface by the delivering crane vehicle. The bags are attached to the crane with all four loops. By opening the discharge valve, the bags can be emptied without setting them down on the roof surface. Pre-distribution can already be carried out by slewing the crane boom. Grading is then carried out with the rake. Capacity: 1.0 m³ or 1.5 m³.
Silo trailers:
Zincolit® Plus and most System Substrates can be conveyed using conventional silo trailers. This method is particularly suitable for large areas or areas that cannot be reached by crane. With this method, the System Substrate / Substrate Soil / Growing Medium can be distributed well during application, but care must be taken to protect sensitive structural elements (front walls / facades, skylight domes, etc.) against any debris that may occur. The blowing time varies depending on the hose length and the System Substrate / Substrate Soil / Growing Medium to be conveyed. A water connection on the construction site is recommended to reduce dust formation.
