Enviro Coat Reflective 1545, an architectural coatings designed to
reflect the sun’s radiant heat, according to the company. This eco-functional, exterior 100 percent acrylic eggshell paint lowers external wall temperature, allowing homeowners and building operators
to minimize air conditioning usage and save money on utility bills.
When applied to vertical outside walls, it deflects a portion of the
sun’s radiant heat away from the building. Its infrared-reflective
technology employs pigments preventing infrared radiant heat from
absorbing into the film and wall, thus keeping exterior walls cooler.
