Zinco System Substrate for Lawns in a Silo, shipping included
This fine grading System Substrate / Substrate Soil / Growing Medium is especially suitable for lawns (preferably when using turf rolls) and for backfilling lawn grids. With the appropriate dumping height / coverage height, it is also suitable for planting perennials, shrubs and trees.
Substrate manufactured from lava, pumice and other mineral aggregates of finely graduated grain-size as well as high-quality organic components.
Particularly suitable for establishing lawn. Deeper thicknesses (At thickness of more than 350 mm please install additional the mineral sub Substrate Zincolit® Plus) can support shrubs, bushes and trees, as a component of a system structure with an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) and CE marking via ETA No. 13/0668 “Kit for Green Roofs”.
The vegetation can be established by either installing turf or by seed sowing. Lawn requires regular irrigation during dry periods.
For optimal plant development the use of an appropriate slow release fertilizer is recommended. Please also take note of our special recommendations for establishing lawn.
Available in Big Bags, as loose material in lorries and in silo trailers.
Please calculate with a compaction factor of 1.45. That means for every square metre and 10 mm of substrate you order 14.5 l.

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 using flexible bulk containers or the Zinco Turbobag®. By swiveling 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, provided the material can be applied directly to the roof surface from 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.
