Achieving Development Biodiversity Net Gain with Sedum Supply

From November 2023, a 10% biodiversity net gain (BNG) requirement will apply to all developments.

The Environment Act 2021 introduced a requirement for developers to achieve a 10% biodiversity net gain for all new developments in England. This means developers must create more or better habitats for wildlife than were previously present on the site. From November 2023, this 10% biodiversity net gain (BNG) requirement will be mandatory for any development. Sedum Supply’s green roof and living wall range can help developers meet this goal, as it provides valuable habitat for a variety of plants and animals.

Green roofs and living walls are particularly beneficial in urban settings, where they can help to improve air quality, reduce noise pollution, and mitigate the urban heat island effect. They can also provide a valuable source of food and shelter for birds, insects, and other wildlife.

Sedum Supply’s green roof and living wall range is designed to be easy to install and maintain, making it a viable option for developers of all sizes. The range includes a variety of sedum plants, which are low-maintenance and drought-tolerant. Sedum plants also offer a variety of colours and textures that can add visual interest to any building.

In addition to sedum plants, Sedum Supply also offers other plants for green roofs and living walls, including succulents, grasses, and herbs. These plants can create a variety of habitats for wildlife, depending on the site’s specific needs.

Here are some additional benefits of using Sedum Supply’s green roof and living wall range to achieve biodiversity net gain:

  • They can be installed on a variety of surfaces, including roofs, walls, and even facades.
  • They require very little maintenance once they are established.
  • They can be customised to meet the project’s specific needs.
  • They can help to improve the value of the property.
