ThermaCool is a high performance, exterior surface coating with excellent infra-red heat reflection properties. The primary benefit is 15°C to 20°C reduction in roof top temperature, depending on the surface. ThermaCool ‘Cool Paint Innovation' is commercialised by Thermogreen Cool Coat Pvt. Ltd., a technology start-up company. ThermaCool Rooftop Coating is a patented solution, uniquely designed and developed by Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay.ThermaCool is a high performance, exterior surface coating with excellent infra-red heat reflection properties. ThermaCool Rooftop Coating acts on and reflects the ‘near infra-red rays', which consist of 52% of the solar energy distribution in sunlight.The paint system termed as ‘Cool Roof Coating' system has been tested for a solar reflectance index (SRI) of 102 for concrete surface and SRI of 95 for metal surface, and approved by CEPT University based on ASTM method. This Coating can be applied on both concrete and metallic surfaces, with minimal surface preparation. This ensures ease of application and quick deployment in less time.Powerful BenefitsThermaCool Rooftop Coating delivers thermal comfort to residents from solar heat. It reduces the top surface (rooftop) temperature exposed to sunlight by 10°C to 20°C.The lowering of ambient temperature (indoor room temperature) by 7°C to 10°C provides cooler and comfortable environment for the occupants. This enhances the living and working conditions, delivering improved productivity.ThermaCool Rooftop Coating generally delivers upto 30% to 40% power savings. This is due to lesser load on cooling devices like air-conditioners, air coolers, ceiling fans & cooling units.This solution has the advantage of quick and easy deployment within 2-4 days, this ensures direct application without set-up or pre-work while ensuring cost savings.
