Yes, it is possible to cover the membrane with gravel, pavers or bankirai wood but the membrane must always be fully adhered to the substrate.
Firestone recommends the use of a protective geotextile (polyester 300 g/m) between the membrane and the ballast.
A sedum vegetation can be placed over the RubberCover EPDM membrane, provided that a root resistant geotextile is used between the vegetation and the membrane.
A distance of 30 cm must be taken in account between the vegetation and every roof installation detail.
