Top 7 Benefits of Using Heat Reflective Paint
Heat waves have become a common part of our vocabulary. And climate change means we can expect more prolonged periods of extreme heat. It is crucial that we mitigate the effects through innovation and sustainable practices.
Managing heat in modern buildings, especially during the summer, presents a significant challenge. As an innovation-first company, Novota is on a mission to tackle heat-related challenges with innovative solutions. To address the issues of heat buildup in homes, we proudly introduce Susheetal, a heat-reflective paint designed specifically for roofs.
The benefits of Susheetal extend far beyond simply combating extreme heat. Through extensive research processes and collaborative efforts, we’ve discovered that this innovative coating offers numerous advantages that exceed our expectations.
As a leading specialty functional coatings manufacturer, we’re excited to share seven key benefits of our heat-reflective paint. By the end of this blog, you’ll have a comprehensive understanding of how Susheetal works and how you can apply it in both residential and commercial settings.
Why Sunsheetal - Heat Reflective Coating is the Smart Choice: 7 Key Benefits
Heat-reflective coatings are effective solutions to keep our homes and buildings comfortable. Here are seven compelling benefits of using this innovative coating:
- Cut Down on Energy Costs: With longer and hotter summers, households face the challenge of increasing the cost of staying cool and comfortable. Heat-reflective coatings reduce heat absorbed by rooftops, which can significantly reduce the demand for air conditioning. This ultimately translates into reduced electricity bills. Also, this innovative coating reduces insulation costs and loads, further improving the return on investment (ROI).
-
Enhanced Indoor comfort: Urban areas often experience significantly higher temperatures than surrounding rural areas due to human activities, concrete surfaces, limited vegetation, and heat generated by buildings and vehicles. This occurrence is referred to as the urban heat island (UHI) effect.
High reflective – high albedo coatings mitigate the urban heat island effect. These coatings reflect the intended heat, prevent overheating, and allow for better temperature control indoors. So this innovative reflective coating is also called a cool-roof coating. - Extended Surface Lifespan: Direct sunlight, UV rays, and increased temperatures can cause surface damage, such as blistering and cracking. These coatings reflect direct sunlight, reduce temperature, and decrease the risk of surface damage. This, in turn, contributes to an extended lifespan of the surface and prolongs its aesthetics.
Moreover, Sunsheetal provides excellent microbial resistance, effectively preventing mold, mildew, and bacteria growth. Additionally, it extends the waterproofing life of surfaces, protecting them from water damage and enhancing durability.
-
Thermal Management in Electrical Enclosure: Electrical enclosures are designed to protect sensitive equipment. Excessive heat can lead to overheating of electrical components, costly downtime, and repairs.
Heat-reflective coatings reflect solar radiation and external heat, reducing the enclosure’s overall temperature. This means optimal operating temperature, reduced maintenance costs, and a safer operational environment. -
Reduces the chance of dangerous reactions: In tanks and pipelines where reactive chemicals are stored, heat-reflective coatings can help maintain optimal temperatures, preventing thermal runaway reactions and reducing the risk of explosions.
-
Increased Safety: Coatings applied to electrical enclosures can significantly reduce the risk of overheating-related failures, thereby contributing to a safer working environment.
Similarly, in petrochemical and hazardous chemical storage tanks, heat-reflective coatings can reduce the likelihood of dangerous reactions, such as explosions or leaks. This safeguards personnel and the surrounding environment, creating a more secure operational landscape. -
Reduce your carbon footprint: SunSheetal, a heat-reflective coating, is formulated using eco-friendly, low-VOC (volatile organic compounds) materials. Volatile compounds have a tendency to evaporate at room temperature which may contribute to air pollution. Low VOC means our coatings contain fewer of these harmful compounds. Additionally, it is LEED-certified by R & D Services Lab USA, which means our coatings aim to reduce their environmental impact and enhance occupant health and well-being.
Overall, heat-reflective paint is a smart choice for various applications. But do you know how it works?
Technology Behind SunSheetal - Best Heat Reflective Coating in India
Heat-reflective coatings use innovative high-emissivity heat-reflective technology. This technology involves the use of materials designed to reflect incoming heat. To gain a clearer understanding, let’s revisit the fundamentals:
Reflection of heat refers to the process by which surfaces redirect incident thermal energy (heat) instead of absorbing it. In short, it helps keep things from getting too hot by repelling heat away.
Application of Heat Reflective Paint:
- Warehouses and Factories
- Urban Planning and Infrastructure
- Automotive and Transportation
- Agricultural Greenhouse
- Any surface exposed to significant amounts of sunlight
