Roof Coatings

A roof can reach temperatures as high as 55 degrees Celsius. Materials like concrete can take hours to cool down again, not allowing the inside of the building to cool down overnight. No wonder your work place is hot! Heat reflective surfacing reflects the suns heat, which stops the roof from heating up in the first place. Studies have shown that the temperature of your roof can drop as much as 17 degree Celsius once a protective roof coating has been applied.

Some of the most advanced roof coatings products in the world are Australian designed products. They work with the use of a protective membrane that encapsulates the roof. The membrane reflects 95% of infra-red rays and 85% of ultra-violet rays, sending them back into the atmosphere and away from your building. Having your roof coated can reduce the inside temperature by up to 47% and reduce your cooling costs by up to 61% as confirmed by research conducted at the University of New South Wales.

Industrial roof painters can visit your business and apply the protective membrane to your roof. If appropriate your walls and surrounding roads can also be treated with the same product. You will notice the difference roof cooling brings within just a few days.

Once you have a protective coat in place your building, factory or warehouse is left cooler, without the use of air-conditioning. Your staff are happier and more productive.

Industrial roof coatings can be applied to many types of surfaces. Concrete and metal roofs are suitable for roof cooling purposes. Even a roof constructed with asbestos is suitable for coating. Using the encapsulating membrane, the asbestos is rendered benign. This means that no dust can escape from the asbestos, even if the roof cracks or or bubbles with time. Many businesses look to asbestos encapsulation as an alternative to the messy, dangerous and time consuming work of asbestos removal
