Cool Coatings: Combating Urban Heat Islands
In this RLW, Heidi J. Ellsworth sits down with Lauren Rogers of Sherwin-Williams to discuss cool coatings. Cool coatings represent a transformative solution in construction, designed to combat urban heat islands and enhance building energy efficiency. These coatings utilize advanced materials and reflective pigments to minimize heat absorption from sunlight, thereby maintaining lower surface temperatures compared to traditional roofing materials. For contractors looking to incorporate cool coatings it can be a triple-bottom-line benefit for building owners of cost savings, environmental stewardship and aesthetic appeal. Tune in to this RLW and stay cool out there!
