A sustainable solution that reflects and emits the sun's
solar radiation to provide a cooler surface

InfraCool Heat Reflective Coatings
|
We are committed to continually improving the environmental
footprint and sustainability of our products. InfraCOOL
Technology reflects and emits both the visibile or
"colored" light and invisible Infrared light which accounts for
over 50% of the sun's total light energy to provide a much cooler
building surface. A cooler surface means less heat
penetration resulting in cooler accupancy zones
which lowers the use of energy-
translating in cost savings and reduced associated
greenhouse gas emissions.

The Need for COOL Roofs
Sustainble building design and energy efficient living leads to
environmentally responsible economic growth. Cool Roofs offer
us one of our most simple and effective Global
Warming mitigation strategies.
Roof surfaces represent 20-25% of the built environ
and act as "Solar Radiators" so much so that around 93% of a
building's HEAT GAIN can be attributed to radiant energy (meaning
the sun's rays converted to heat after absorption). In
Australia, where the prominent source of a buildings heat gain is
Radiant Sunlight and up to 93% of a buildings heat gain in summer
is attributable to radiant heat. Reflective COOL Roofs should
be a key focus in combating heat gain.

HISTORIES
|

In Australia, most commercial buildings have Galvanised or
Zincalume roofing which act as poor reflectors of solar
energy. By reflecting more of the sun's energy these surfaces
can be 20-40°C COOLER translating into cooler occupancy zones,
lowering cooling energy demand and thus delivery cost and energy
emission savings.

Sustainable Opportunity for Residential
Properties
It doesn't have to be WHITE to be COOL...
InfraCOOL® Technology maximises reflection of infra-red
radiation, even dark colours can be made COOLER. InfraCOOL®
Charcoal, for example can be up to 16ºC COOLER than conventionally
formulated Charcoal without changing the visual colour.
