Fiber Cement

Looking to enhance the lifetime of your fiber cement without compromising on aesthetics? Discover our high-performance DOWSIL™ Silicone and PRIMAL™ Acrylic emulsions developed to extend the weatherability, aesthetic performance and service life of your fiber cement products. 

Improving the energy efficiency of buildings

The energy efficiency of modern buildings helps to reduce CO2  emissions and improve living standards. The most significant factor contributing to this is the reduction of the energy used to control the internal temperatures of buildings.

A Cool Reflective Roof Coating reflects solar radiation, which helps to reduce ambient air temperature and save on energy costs for cooling. This technology is best suited for renovations and on non-insulated buildings such as warehouses and factories.
