When it comes to managing energy efficiency and thermal comfort in industrial buildings, the choice of roof insulation is crucial. Two popular options are heat insulation coatings and traditional insulation materials. Understanding the differences, advantages, and limitations of each can help facility managers and building owners make the smartest investment. What Is Heat Insulation Coating? Heat insulation coatings are liquid-applied substances designed to reflect solar radiation and reduce heat transfer into buildings. These coatings are applied directly to the roof surface and form a seamless, reflective barrier that helps keep internal temperatures lower. What Is Traditional Insulation? Traditional insulation includes materials such as fiberglass, mineral wool, foam boards, and spray polyurethane foam . These materials are installed beneath or over the roof structure and work by reducing the conduction of heat through the building envelope. Key Differences Application Method: He...
