ALUMASHIELD 

ALUMASHIELD is an aluminum filled, water-based, low emissivity (low-e) Interior Radiation Control Coating (liquid applied thermal barrier). ALUMASHIELD is designed mostly for application to the underside of a building’s roof, but can be applied to the interior sides of exterior walls. It will dramatically reduce the amount of radiant heat entering the structure. Radiant Barrier Paint is a non-emitter of radiant heat because of the inert aluminum pigment. Aluminum properties block up to 82.2% of the radiant heat normally transferred through roofs into air space below. It helps stop radiant heat from escaping and also keeps heat inside during colder months. This results in a significant reduction in the cooling requirements of the building in warm weather, without sacrificing the building’s ability to retain heat in cooler weather which will also decrease energy consumption.

ALUMASHIELD lowers the emissivity (heat that passes through) of the surface to which it is applied with an emissivity rating of .178 which exceeds the requirement for IRCC, and is categorized under ASTM standards as an IRCC, Interior Radiation Control Coating. ALUMASHIELD will reduce the average utility bill and is an excellent low-cost substitute for metallic foils and metalized plastic film radiant barriers. ALUMASHIELD has an unlimited life cycle and will last as long as the surface it is applied to.
