Blox B Sedum Roof Shelter

A Compact Sedum Roof Shelter for Public and Private Sites

The Blox B Sedum Roof Shelter is a refined sedum roof shelter developed for sites that require reliable cover without the scale of a large compound. Its proportions and open-fronted format make it suitable for cycle parking, waiting areas or small shelter applications where accessibility and visual restraint are important.

Typical applications include:

• Cycle parking for offices and workplaces
  
• Education campuses and civic buildings
  
• Residential developments with shared amenities
  
• Public realm schemes and landscaped spaces
  
• Small-scale transport or waiting areas

The Blox B design is often selected where a modest footprint and consistent appearance are key considerations.

Living Roof Shelter with Environmental Performance

The integrated sedum roof gives the shelter clear sustainability credentials, positioning it as a green roof shelter suited to environmentally led projects. The living roof layer establishes quickly and performs reliably in exposed outdoor conditions with minimal ongoing maintenance.

Environmental benefits include:

• Rainwater attenuation to assist sustainable drainage strategies
  
• Improved thermal moderation beneath the shelter
  
• Biodiversity enhancement through planted roof coverage
  
• Reduced visual impact when viewed from above or at distance

As a sedum roof bus shelter or cycle shelter, the Blox B model supports planning objectives that prioritise green infrastructure and landscape integration.

Timber and Steel Construction for Long-Term Durability

The shelter is constructed around a galvanised steel structural frame, providing strength, rigidity and corrosion resistance for long-term external use. External faces are clad with FSC®-certified timber slats, available in hardwood or softwood options, offering a natural finish that complements both urban and landscaped contexts.

Construction features include:

• Galvanised steel frame for durability and stability
  
• FSC®-certified timber cladding for sustainable sourcing
  
• Materials selected for low maintenance and long service life
  
• Roof structure designed to support a sedum system

This combination balances robustness with a restrained, architectural appearance.

Capacity and Layout Options

The Blox B sedum roof shelter is available in two standard sizes, allowing capacity to be matched to site requirements without overscaling the structure.

Standard capacity options:

• 4100mm length: 10 cycles
  
• 5000mm length: 12 cycles

The open-fronted layout supports straightforward access and clear circulation, making the shelter suitable for regular daily use.

Optional Security and Specification Enhancements

While open as standard, the Blox B shelter can be configured with additional features to suit operational or security needs.

Available options include:

• Mesh or timber-clad gates for controlled access
  
• Powder-coated steel framework in a wide range of RAL colours
  
• Integrated LED or solar-powered lighting
  
• Bespoke adjustments to suit site layouts
  
• Full installation service across the UK and Ireland

The shelter is frequently specified alongside Broxap’s range of cycle stands, seating and street furniture to create a cohesive public realm solution.
