The Challenge
Commercial roofs are operating expense in disguise
Most commercial and industrial roofs are dark, heat-absorbing, and aging. They drive HVAC bills upward year after year and degrade silently — until a leak, a hail event, or a roofing inspection forces an expensive decision.
Tear-off and replacement is the default option, but the math rarely works: weeks of business disruption, six-figure budgets, tons of material to landfill, and capex committees that say no until the roof is failing.
Owners and operators of commercial real estate need a system that restores the roof, captures real energy savings, and fits inside an annual operating budget rather than a generational capital project.
The Solution
Restore the roof. Capture the savings. Skip the tear-off.
Cool Roof Coat is NanoTech's flagship reflective acrylic roof coating, engineered to apply directly over existing TPO, EPDM, PVC, metal, BUR, modified bitumen, and SPF substrates. It restores aging commercial roofs without the cost or disruption of replacement.
The coating is built on NanoTech's ICP™ platform — the insulative ceramic particle technology TIME named one of the Best Inventions of 2024. ICP-loaded coatings actively reject solar heat through high reflectance, high emissivity, and low thermal conductivity, delivering up to 50% HVAC reduction (cooling-related), extended roof life, and warranty options up to 20 years on qualifying systems.

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. Buildings stay fully operational during the work.
Recommended commercial roofing system
Cool Roof Coat works best as a complete restoration system. Pair with prep and repair products for the longest service life.
Commercial roofing coating FAQs
On most commercial roofs that are still structurally sound, yes. Cool Roof Coat is engineered to bond directly to TPO, EPDM, PVC, metal, BUR, modified bitumen, and spray polyurethane foam (SPF) substrates — restoring the roof without the cost, disruption, or landfill impact of full replacement.
