The high thermal emissivity (91%) and high solar reflection (83%) values of THERMO-REFLECT® offer cool roofing. the “cool roof” technology consists of applying a reflective coating with high emissivity on the roof of buildings that prevents the absorption of solar radiation. Cool Roof paint can be applied to a variety of roofing materials, including metal, concrete and asphalt shingles. It is particularly effective on flat or low-slope roofs, which tend to absorb more heat than steep-slope roofs.
Painting your roof with reflective paint is a smart and practical choice that can bring many benefits to your home or building.
Some of the benefits of such coatings are:
- Energy efficiency: One of the main advantages of reflective roof paint is that it can help reduce your energy bills. Reflective paint reflects sunlight and heat away from your roof, keeping your home or building cooler and reducing the need for air conditioning.
- Extended roof life: UV rays from the sun can damage your roof over time, leading to cracks, leaks, and other problems. Reflective paint protects your roof by reflecting UV rays and reducing the amount of heat absorbed by it. Its life is extended and the need for repair or replacement is reduced.
- Thermal comfort: Reflective paint helps keep your home or building cooler, making it more comfortable this can be especially important during the summer months when temperatures can soar. By keeping your space cooler, you can create a more pleasant and comfortable environment for all occupants.
- Environmental Benefits: Reflective paint can also help reduce the urban heat island effect, which is caused by heat absorption by dark surfaces such as roofs and roads. By reflecting heat away from your roof, reflective paint can help lower local temperatures and reduce demand for energy-intensive air conditioning, resulting in reduced carbon emissions.
- Cost-effective: Reflective paint is a cost-effective solution to improve the energy efficiency and longevity of your roof. It can be applied quickly and easily, and it can offer benefits for years to come. Reflective paint can help reduce the need for costly repairs and replacement of your roof, resulting in long-term savings.
