By  D.RAJENDRAN, MD,  MRT Chemicals Pvt Ltd

Green building is very important, as is budget-friendly ways to implement it. Often, environmentally friendly choices are not budget conscious. What is such a great deal about Heat reflective Paint branded as ‘Summer Cool Paint’ is that, it is both eco-friendly and budget-friendly. Are you looking for a budget-friendly way to make your building greener?

If you would like to help the environment while taking care of your home, you should consider to apply Summer Cool Paint on your building roof, a proprietary roof coating that will provide your roof with an extended 20-year lifetime

SUMMER COOL PAINT..!

Buildings that are located in India will all be affected by the heat which is absorbed directly into the building via the roof. In order to keep these buildings cool the owners will have to set up an air conditioning system to control the heat. Obviously this can be incredibly expensive, especially in countries where the heat can become unbearable at certain times during the day.

 
Buildings that have asbestos sheet and metal roofs are particularly prone to being overheated during the summer months and working in such conditions can be very uncomfortable. In order to help combat this reflective roof paint called SUMMER COOL PAINT can be used. In fact many business owners with commercial buildings or even a warehouse will find that without reflective roof paint their cooling costs would  be  sky  high.
 
Second, how is it budget friendly?? The first thing to think about when it comes to saving money with reflective roof paint is that it reflects heat from the roof. This is particularly important if the roof in question is a RCC or metal roof or asbestos roof as these can reach staggering temperatures.

By simply coating a commercial metal roof, asbestos roof and RCC in reflective roof paint the roof will absorb significantly less heat than an uncoated roof, making the building much cooler. This means that cooling costs will be lowered as the heat reflective roof paint does not allow as much heat to penetrate into the building.

Summer Cool Paint  is a type of paint that is applied directly to a roof and once it is dry will start to reflect heat. It can be painted on any  type of roofs that are in direct sunlight and / or get very hot. In fact using this Summer cool  paint on a  roof is the best way of lowering the temperature inside a building, other than using air conditioning. 

Summer Coool Paint is a water based co-polymer paint compounded of inert pigments and special fillers. Because it is applied in liquid form the heat reflective paint is also able to bridge hairline cracks and gaps up to 1.6mm, increasing the water proof capability of the existing roof. Creating a membrane over the area of application.

As per the laws of physics, it is highly recommended that a white shade be used, rather than a dark one, to enhance the reflective ability of the membrane.

Chindu Traders Chennai..!

Heat reflective roof paint coatings are easy to have applied to your roof and there are dedicated companies like MRT Chemicals Pvt Ltd., and their authorized applicators like M / S. Chindu Traders in Chennai ,  who can do this for you. They will come to your premises and quote for heat reflective  roof paint which will make all the difference to the cooling and heating costs of a business. In fact the money spent on having this kind of heat reflective paint coated on a roof works out much cheaper than running air conditioning for the whole summer.

Many business owners are actually surprised at the change in temperature that they experience after having such a coating applied to their roofs.

All business owners and building promoters  should certainly look into the benefits of having heat reflective paint used on their roofs. It will work to cut spending costs which are associated with cooling and heating and it will last for years.

More Cost Effective..! 
So rather than turning up the air conditioning to keep your factory, house or commercial building cool think about the cheaper and simpler alternative " heat reflective paint. It works quickly and it will soon pay for itself when the first cooling or heating bill comes in. Forget about more costly options for creating a pleasant temperature to work in and look towards a more cost effective method " heat reflective paint.

Developed in India, this unique composite, forms a membrane which is capable of re-radiating 90 % of infrared and 85 % of ultra violet rays back into the atmosphere. Temperature readings on the underside areas of roofing not treated with the heat reflective paint were recorded at 55.8oC whereas areas under the same roof at the same time recorded temperature readings of 38oC.

Other tests have recorded a rise in temperature of only 1oC on the surface treated with the heat reflective roof paint and in the same conditions a rise in temperature of 19oC on the untreated surface.

The amount of heat re-radiated back into the atmosphere, means there is less heat left on the roof surface to be conducted through the roofing material into the air, or even insulation material on the interior of the roof. Reducing the heat available to be transferred means that the air touching the roof or insulation material will not warm up to the higher temperatures that untreated roofs create.

Reflective roof paints can be applied to large or small areas of roofing made of almost any material " metal, asbestos, asphalt, fibreglass, timber, concrete, shingle. A particularly successful application of this membrane is the treatment of large industrial and commercial structures resulting in premises experiencing much lower internal temperatures. Significant reduction of inside temperatures, produces less, or in many cases, no need for additional ventilation from fans and extractors, or even portable air-cooling systems.

Because it is applied in liquid form the heat reflective paint is also able to bridge hairline cracks and gaps up to 1.6 mm, increasing the water proof capability of the existing roof. Creating a membrane over the area of application the heat reflective coatings from Insultec are available in a range of colours, both light and dark. As per the laws of physics, it is highly recommended that a lighter shade be used, rather than a dark one, to enhance the reflective ability of the membrane.

MRT SUMMER COOL PAINT - heat reflective paint when applied to roofing areas lowers the inside temperature of buildings, which means less use of electricity to run cooling systems which in turn will contribute to the reduction in global warming. A win, win situation for everyone.
