Vertical Capability That Reaches Sky High
With the rising popularity of green roofs driven by environmental benefits, economic incentives, and municipal mandates, Express Blower recognized an opportunity to expand equipment capabilities and create profitable business opportunities for contractors. Through continuous engineering development, Express Blower machines now deliver materials vertically to heights exceeding 30 stories—revolutionizing how green roof installations are completed.
While all Express Blower models can handle vertical green roof applications, our high-output units including the EB-60HO and TM-HD configurations have proven capability for extreme-height installations on the world’s tallest green roof projects. This vertical placement technology eliminates cranes, wheelbarrows, manlifts, and the extensive labor traditionally required for rooftop material installation—transforming green roof projects from logistically complex challenges into efficient, profitable opportunities.
A Green Machine for Sustainable Building
Due to their environmental and economic benefits, green roofs have gained widespread acceptance across North America, Australia, Europe, and international markets. Many municipalities now mandate green roof installations on commercial developments, while building owners increasingly pursue LEED certification and sustainable design goals. This market transformation creates exceptional opportunities for contractors who can efficiently install green roof systems.
Express Blower equipment meets the challenge of delivering drainage rock, growing media, soil blends, compost, and specialty materials to rooftops regardless of building height or site constraints. Now contractors can offer specialized green roof installation services that distinguish them from competitors limited to traditional manual methods.
Green Roof Installation Advantages with Express Blower Equipment
Extreme Vertical Reach
Blow growing media, drainage aggregates, and rooftop materials 30 stories or higher depending on equipment model, material characteristics, and project conditions. This capability makes previously impractical green roof installations economically viable.
Eliminate Costly Equipment
Remove the need for expensive cranes, manlifts, hoisting equipment, and the associated rental costs, insurance requirements, and operational complexity that make traditional green roof installations prohibitively expensive for many building owners.
Faster Installation with Reduced Labor
Complete green roof material installation significantly faster than traditional wheelbarrow and manual placement methods while requiring dramatically fewer workers—improving project profitability and enabling contractors to serve multiple projects simultaneously.
Minimize Site Disruption
Pneumatic placement from ground level or adjacent locations creates fewer obstructions to public walkways, roadways, building entrances, and occupied spaces—critical advantages for green roof installations on operating commercial buildings and urban properties.
Integrated Terraseeding Capabilities
Utilize Express Blower's patented Supplemental Injection System to simultaneously install growing media and seed for green roof turf and wildflower applications, completing vegetation establishment in one efficient operation.
