CRICS Ceramic Reflective Coating Systems

What are they? ... and how will they help me save money?

CRICS SM, represent a revolution in waterproofing and insulation systems.

Ceramic Reflective Insulating Coating Systems

Coatings systems that are formulated from state of the art aliphatic-acrylic urethanes and unique proprietary ceramic components. When cured they fully adhere "rubber like" as a elastomeric membrane which can be used on virtually any clean, dry, and mechanically sound substrate, such as built-up roofing, modified bitumen, metal, composition shingles, polyurethane foam; brick, concrete, wood WALLS and more.

Weather Resistance

Tough protective weatherproof membrane on Roof or Walls

Waterproof, insulate, easily handle exposure to UV solar radiation
Withstand temperatures ranging from -20°F to 200°F+
Easily handle snow, ice, driving rain, hail, or any other elements of nature.
Will not chalk, fade, become brittle, split or peel like ordinary products that
deteriorate from UV exposure
System is SEAMLESS - there is no chance for seam leaks like conventional membranes

BENEFITS: Less water related damage and longer life expectancy for any roofing systems!

Insulating Qualities

92% of heat from solar radiation reflected due to unique ceramic components.

Significantly LOWER roof or wall temperatures means reduced thermal stress from expansion and contraction (the cause of most roof and seam failures), "curling" of siding or T 1-11

REDUCED maintenance expense associated with roof repairs

Radiant Heat is reflected NOT absorbed by Roof and Walls–NOT retained inside building

REDUCED AC operating costs (significantly lower power bills) and

REDUCED load on AC equipment (less maintenance).

BENEFITS: Reduced cooling costs, lower maintenance expense, increased equipment and roof life!

Easy Application and Low Maintenance Costs

NO need for expensive, heavy, specialized roofing equipment or labor

EASY to apply - Building Maintenance or "in house" crews with ordinary painters tools

Maintenance, if needed, are a simple "do-it-yourself" matter of brush and fabric.

NO built-up roofing to dry out, NO seams to split and crack, or single-ply membranes

to deteriorate under the intense heat and exposure from the sun.

SAVE thousands in replacement cost with a roof that will virtually last indefinitely

BENEFITS: less expensive than re-roofing. No messy roof removal. Permanent solution!

Tax Advantages and Environmentally Friendly

Very low VOC's = very little air pollution - NO smelly, harmful emissions of hot asphalt.

NO removal of the existing asphalt roofing required – SAVING money

NO dumping of tons of waste and debris - SAVINGS for the environment –

TAX SAVINGS FOR THE PROPERTY OWNER: maintenance coating written off in current tax year - UNLIKE conventional re-roofing which must be depreciated over many years.

BENEFITS: Full current year tax deduction and environmentally responsible!

*only if various years’ warranty is purchased at additional cost. 15 to 20 years span true in cold climates only. Costs are estimates and vary by type, brand, location and specifications. Costs do not include any removal and/or repair of the existing roofing materials or structure that may be necessary before the application of the above coatings, materials or systems. Costs are based on general application practices and estimated contractor costs. Cost figures are compiled from trade publications and WA. & CA. Roofing Contractors and Commercial Paint Contractors (Walls).
