Cool Barrier Technology By ABOLIN
High solar reflective Cool Technology noticeably combines the improvement of thermal comfort conditions with the reduction of energy consumption for cooling.
ABOLIN is a pionneer company in European level, certified with Energy Star® for her innovative range of coatings for building envelope.
The Issue
Rising energy costs, the urban heat-island effect and global warming increase the need for intelligent solar heat management solutions like CoolBarrier paints.
Cool Barrier Coatings for buildings envelope
CoolBarrier Roof & Facade for roofs is an excellent quality elastomeric waterproof coatings system, based on a "cool" raw materials technology. It forms an extremely high reflective mat surface that blocks the incoming solar radiation and remains cooler, contributing to energy saving for cooling . It is specially formulated to retain its elasticity, even in low temperatures. It covers completely all existing hairlines or small cracks and withstands in difficult weather conditions such as rain, snow, UV radiation. It prevents mould and green spots and has an excellent crack binding ability. COOL BARRIER technology allows for the design of products that remain cool under the sun - without compromising colour preferences. CoolBarrier is available in white and in a number of shades through Abolin CoolBarrier Colours Palette.
COOL BARRIER Reduces Urban Temperatures and Air Pollution
As vegetation has been replaced with non-reflective materials, temperature in our cities has increased. This places a heavy demand on peak energy loads and creates health risks in non-air-conditioned buildings. In addition, increased urban air temperatures, heat increase the probability of smog incidents, which negatively affects the health of community residents. COOL BARRIER products contribute to keeping our cities cool by maximizing the reflectivity of man-made surfaces, such as roofs, facades and pavements.
Improves Indoor thermal comfort conditions
Applying COOL BARRIER on the building envelope would result in a decrease in cooling loads of over40%. The higher the value of solar reflectance the less heat penetrates into the building and less cooling energy is required to maintain a comfortable indoor thermal environment.
Cool Barrier Concrete Tiles
ABOLIN's cool concrete tiles on the surfaces of the urban environment could contribute to the reduction of surface temperatures and their large scale application (city wide) could contribute to the reduction of the air temperature due to surface heat balance at the urban level, and therefore to improve outdoor thermal comfort and reduce the heat island effect.
