Moving in the right direction.
We are promoting the usage of environmentally responsible, high performance "solar-reflective" pre-painted steel for metal roofing systems.
What You Should Know About Cool Metal Roof ?
Hip, square, flat, or pointed, cool metal roofing products are now being specified by architects to save energy, satisfy building codes and meet client expectations for comfort, cost and aesthetics.
Cool metal roofs can be selected from a wide variety of colors and can be applied to virtually any building or roof slope in any location.
Benefits of using Cool Metal Roof ?
The extent of the benefits will correlate to the building's location, type and use, as well as to the specific radiative properties of the selected roofing product.
The broad range of locations in which cool metal roofs are proving to be a viable energy efficiency measure.
Integrate materials with greater spectral reflectance than their traditional
Cool metal roofs are metal roofing products that integrate materials with greater spectral reflectance than their traditional, non-cool counterparts, and thereby minimize the transfer of heat to the building below. This is true for a broad range of product types, colors, textures and roof slope applications.
Real Example
In America, many of the states and major cities now require some level of LEED-NC (LEED® for New Construction) certification for new public buildings. The use of a cool, energy-efficient pre-painted steel material for metal roof can directly or indirectly contribute up to 15 points in the LEED program. In Malaysia, the GBI (Green Building Index) is now being used to promote sustainability in the built environment and create awareness about our environmental issues.
