The Challenge
Aging roofs cost more than the energy they waste
Most commercial roofs more than 10 years old absorb a punishing amount of solar heat — surface temperatures often exceed 160°F on a summer afternoon. That heat radiates into the building, and HVAC systems run harder to compensate.
Traditional fixes mean a full tear-off and replacement: weeks of disruption, large capital budgets, and tons of material sent to landfills. Worse, many conventional reflective coatings lose performance within five to seven years and need to be reapplied.
Property owners and facility managers need a way to restore the roof, not replace it — and to keep the energy savings rolling for the long term.
The Solution
Cool Roof Coat: a restoration system that pays for itself
Cool Roof Coat is a high-performance, water-based acrylic coating built on NanoTech's ICP™ platform — the same insulative ceramic particle technology TIME named one of the Best Inventions of 2024. It actively rejects solar heat through high reflectance, high emissivity, and low thermal conductivity — and it keeps performing even when the roof gets dirty.
It applies directly over TPO, EPDM, PVC, metal, BUR, modified bitumen, and SPF — no tear-off, no demolition, no landfill cost. Most commercial roofs are completed in days, with the building staying fully operational throughout the application.
Why facility teams choose Cool Roof Coat for restoration
Six measurable advantages over tear-off and conventional reflective coatings.
Up to 50% HVAC reduction
High reflectance plus low thermal conductivity drops surface temperatures and the cooling load that follows.
No tear-off required
Applies directly over single-ply, metal, BUR, mod-bit, and SPF — no demo, no landfill, no business interruption.
Days, not weeks
Spray or roller application typically cures in 24 hours. Buildings stay open during the work.
Up to 20-year NDL warranty
No Dollar Limit warranty options of 10, 15, or 20 years on qualifying systems.
Waterproof and weather-tough
Resists ponding water, wind-driven rain, and 2-inch hail. Stable from -22°F to 212°F.
Code & rebate friendly
CRRC-rated, Title 24, ASHRAE 90.1, IECC, and Miami-Dade approved. Qualifies for many utility rebates.
Where roof restoration with Cool Roof Coat fits
Designed for commercial and industrial roofs that still have life left in the substrate.
Distribution & logistics centers
Massive low-slope roofs where every degree of interior cooling translates to meaningful HVAC savings.
Retail & big-box stores
Restore aging single-ply or BUR membranes and improve customer comfort during peak summer hours.
Manufacturing facilities
Reduce ambient heat loads in non-air-conditioned plants where worker comfort and equipment performance suffer in summer.
Office complexes
Avoid tear-off costs on multi-tenant properties while reducing tenant cooling complaints and energy bills.
Cold storage & food processing
Lower compressor run-time and refrigeration energy costs by reducing heat gain through the roof.
Schools, hospitals & municipal buildings
Low-disruption upgrade that fits tight occupancy windows and qualifies for sustainability incentives.

Approvals
HVAC savings up to 50% are based on cooling-related energy use on qualifying low-slope commercial roofs in cooling-dominant climate zones; actual savings depend on building size, insulation, occupancy, and roof condition — confirmed during the site assessment. Cool Roof Coat is engineered and assembled in the USA with Non-Reportable VOC content and minimal PPE required to apply.
Recommended system
Cool Roof Coat works best as a complete restoration system. Pair it with prep and repair products for the longest service life.
