What is Ceramic Coatings?

Ceramic coating has been around for many years and is highly effective in preventing unnecessary heat loss or gain in residential and commercial structures.
Ceramic coating is a paint mixed with one or more ceramic mixtures for application via spray or roller to external and internal sides. Depending on the ceramic composites used, this insulating product has the ability to prevent heat transfer and heat loading onto a structure. This means heat will not transfer into or out of a structure.


Unlike fiberglass insulation, whose R-value ranking assumes heat loading by a building and simply measures the rate at which that heat is transferred, ceramic coatings are not given an R-value ranking. Instead, they are rated by “emission rate.” a measure of both their ability to reflect heat and the amount of heat that is loaded onto a surface.


A research study says that “The right key to insulation is preventing heat load”. The concept is simple: rather than using fiberglass insulation which is slow in process, we can use the ceramic coatings which give us efficient as well as effective effect.
