SuperTherm ® - Product Information
Benefits
-
Energy savings of 20-70% for
air-conditioned buildings during the warmer months. Greater savings
can be seen with cooler buildings and freezers.
-
Increases productivity resulting from less heat stressed work areas
-
Reduces heat stress and increase
performance of animals
-
Relatively thin. Only the thickness of a business card, but has been
favourably tested in labs and in the field against batt insulation:
-
Reflects over 95% of the radiation from the sun.
-
R-19 equivalent rating.
(Equal to 15-20cm of fibreglass)
-
Unique
ceramic composition:
-
Four different ceramics for full coverage against heat transfer.
-
Most ceramic coatings only contain a single reflective ceramic.
-
The only ceramic coating rated as
an insulator by BOCA (U.S. Building Code).
-
Various resins, including urethanes, for durability and
longevity.
-
Reflects 68% of sound waves that contact it.
-

SuperTherm® will help to prevent spread of, and will not contribute
to, the burn.
-
Prevents mold and mildew growth.
-
USDA approved for use in and around
food preparation areas.
-
Environmentally friendly.
-
Long life - 20+ years lifespan on
roofing under normal conditions.
-
White in colour and rough in texture
for maximum performance.
Uses
-
Industrial and Commercial
-
Reduces energy costs and increases
comfort by coating roofing and interior or exterior walls to keep
heat in during winter or heat out during the summer.
-
Insulate freezers or
refrigeration units to protect goods and reduce costs.
-
Reduce fuel consumption
with refrigerated trucks.
-
Protect goods by insulating long haul
trailers designed to carry perishables.
