The Advantages of Silicone Roof Coatings
One of the most common and effective types of roof coatings is silicone. It can restore and protect many kinds of commercial roofs, such as metal, modified bitumen, single-ply, EPDM, TPO, built-up roofs, concrete roof decks, and spray, polyurethane foam.
Resistant to
Ponding Water
Silicone roof coatings resist ponding water because they are moisture-cured. They do not absorb or degrade from water, making them ideal for flat roofs. Many commercial buildings use silicone coating systems. However, good drainage is still essential for any roof.
U.V. Protection
80-90% of the sun’s UV rays are reflected when using a silicone roof coating which is why they are considered “cool” roofs. This lowers cooling costs, reduces HVAC workloads, and improves building comfort. It also extends roof life by preventing sun damage.
Flexible & Durable
When dry, the coating forms a flexible, seamless, and durable membrane that resists wind, oxidation, and temperature extremes. They also adapt to the thermal movement of large roofs.
High Solids Content
Silicone roof coatings have high-solids content (over 95+/-%). This means less material is needed to get the right thickness. Applying more coating in one pass saves time and money without sacrificing quality.
More Benefits
Cost Efficient
A fraction of the cost compared to a complete tear-out therefore environmentally friendly having less materials going to land fills.
Excellent Flow & Leveling
The product offers a remarkable quality of flow and leveling that ensures a flawless and uniform application on any surface.
High Permeability
With a permeability rating of 7.2 perms, the silicone roof coating is breathable and resists blistering.
Outstanding Adhesion
Ensures a durable and long-lasting coating that enhances the longevity of the roof structure.
Seamless Membrane
A seamless membrane is a waterproof layer with no seams or joints that can leak. It covers the whole roof and prevents water damage.
Color Stable & Chemical Resistant
Its color does not fade and it is not affected by chemicals: It is durable in harsh environmental conditions.
