Maximizing Energy Efficiency in Metal Roof Manufacturing

Metal roofing in commercial and industrial facilities faces significant challenges in Texas heat. With temperatures regularly exceeding 100°F, unprotected metal roofs can reach surface temperatures of 160°F or higher, creating massive heat loads that drive up cooling costs.

The Challenge of Metal Roof Heat Absorption

Traditional metal roofing, while durable and long-lasting, acts as a massive heat absorber during summer months. This heat absorption creates several problems:

• Extremely high cooling costs during peak summer months
• Uncomfortable working conditions for employees
• Increased wear on HVAC systems
• Potential for heat-related equipment failures

Super Therm® Ceramic Coating Solution

Super Therm® ceramic thermal barrier coating addresses these challenges by creating a reflective barrier that blocks up to 95% of solar heat radiation. The coating works through multiple mechanisms:

• Solar Reflection: Ceramic microspheres reflect infrared radiation before it penetrates the surface
• Thermal Insulation: Multiple air gaps within the coating provide insulative properties
• Heat Dissipation: Advanced emissivity properties efficiently dissipate residual heat

Measurable Results

Our clients consistently see significant improvements after Super Therm® application:

• 30-50% reduction in cooling costs
• 40-70°F reduction in surface temperatures
• Improved employee comfort and productivity
• Extended HVAC system life
• ROI typically achieved within 18-24 months

Professional Application Process

Proper application is crucial for achieving maximum performance. Our certified technicians follow a rigorous process:

1. Comprehensive surface preparation and cleaning
2. Weather condition assessment for optimal application
3. Two-coat system application with proper cure times
4. Quality inspection and performance verification

The result is a high-performance coating system with a 20+ year lifespan that continues to deliver energy savings year after year.
