Susanne Herfort, Dipl.-Ing., is a dedicated researcher and specialist at the Institute of Agronomy and Urban Plant Production (IASP) at Humboldt University of Berlin, Germany. Her work focuses on developing sustainable, nature-based solutions for urban and agricultural environments, with an emphasis on using renewable raw materials such as sheep’s wool. She has played a key role in the development of innovative perennial and vegetation mats made from raw sheep’s wool and other biodegradable materials. These mats support extensive and intensive roof greening, slope stabilization, and track bed greening, contributing to climate-resilient urban infrastructure. Her expertise includes the care and maintenance of green roofs, ground-based façade greening, and navigating funding opportunities for roof and façade greening across Germany.
