Imagine an invisible shield, as thin as a leaf, capable of repelling heat in summer, combating cold in winter, and protecting your infrastructure against corrosion and the wear of time. This is exactly what thermal insulating and reflective paint offers: an innovation at the crossroads of chemistry and energy ingenuity. Suitable for sectors as diverse as industry, construction, and petrochemicals, this technology redefines the standards of thermal insulation and durability.

Industry: Energy Savings and Enhanced Safety

In the industrial world, every degree counts. Here, thermal insulating and reflective paint acts as a true thermal conductor, reducing heat transfer, eliminating thermal bridges, and limiting conduction. The result? A drastic reduction in energy and maintenance costs.

Take a concrete example: a simple 0.5 mm layer (two applications of paint) can reduce the surface temperature of a heat conduit by 40%. Imagine machinery operating at high temperatures—this solution not only protects it but also ensures the safety of teams by preventing smoke emissions and flame propagation.

Versatile, it can be applied to nearly anything: production lines, tanks, silos, pipes, valves, and even steam or cooling ducts. Steel, stainless steel, aluminum? No problem. Even better, some of these thermal insulating and reflective coatings can be applied without the need for a primer or anti-corrosion treatment, acting as a durable barrier against rust.

Their quick application is a major advantage: they can be applied even during operations, at temperatures up to 150°C—and up to 210°C under specific conditions. No need to halt your operations to protect your infrastructure.

Construction and Building: When Thinness Meets Efficiency

In the construction sector, thermal insulating and reflective paint is a revolutionary solution. Imagine a coating that transforms your walls, roofs, and facades into true energy shields, without taking up a single extra square centimeter.

Applied both indoors and outdoors, on any surface, and sometimes even without a primer, this solution guarantees a thermal barrier that keeps your spaces temperate all year round. Your offices and warehouses become oases of comfort, with energy savings of up to 40%.

But that’s not all: this coating also acts as a humidity regulator, improving the air quality in your buildings and preventing their expansion and contraction. By reducing the effects of time and enhancing overall energy efficiency, it extends the lifespan of your real estate.

Unlike traditional insulations, which are often bulky and expensive to install, this thin, quick-application coating doesn’t disrupt your activities. Occupants can continue to work or live in the premises without the slightest discomfort.

Oil, Gas, and Petrochemicals: A Shield Against Extremes

In demanding environments such as oil, gas, and petrochemicals, thermal insulating and reflective coatings prove to be indispensable. Designed to combat Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI), it was the first water-based coating to meet this challenge back in the 1980s.

With its built-in corrosion inhibitors, it protects metal structures while providing exceptional thermal insulation. Pipelines, tanks, pipes, silos—even equipment operating at extreme temperatures, ranging from -160°C (Liquefied Natural Gas) to 210°C—benefit from its unique properties.

Just like in the industrial sector, its application doesn’t require halting operations. Whether your infrastructure is hot or cold, the solution can be safely applied, ensuring continuous insulation without disrupting your processes.

A Solution for All Industries, A Sustainable Future

Thermal insulating and reflective paint is not just a coating; it’s a philosophy. It represents a new way of thinking about protection and energy efficiency, both cost-effective and environmentally friendly.

Whether it’s protecting critical infrastructure, reducing energy bills, or increasing the longevity of your buildings, this technology proves to be an essential ally. Don’t wait any longer to transform your surfaces into invisible guardians, combining innovation and performance.

Global Recognition in Service of Excellence

Certified by the Cool Roof Rating Council (CRRC) in the United States and the European Cool Roofs Council (ECRC) in Europe, thermal insulating and reflective paint is a global benchmark. Tested according to rigorous standards—such as Australian terraces, McDonald’s slip standards, and international roads and airports—it guarantees performance, safety, and reliability in the most demanding environments.
