Thermo-Facades Anti-Insect: Thermal and Insect-Repellent Exterior Paint
Safeguard your spaces with Thermo-Facades Anti-Insect, an advanced acrylic thermal paint for exteriors that repels bothersome insects while providing insulation and decoration. Its innovative polymeric microcapsule technology uses natural ingredients like citriodiol and lemon citronella oils, free of biocides, for effective and long-lasting insect repulsion. Infused with hollow microspheres and nanotechnology-based reflective pigments, this paint offers low thermal conductivity, making it ideal for energy-efficient, pest-free facades.
Key Features
- Insect Repellent: Natural formula prevents the proliferation of bothersome insects, perfect for public health, veterinary, and food industry settings.
- Thermal Insulation: Reduces heat flow by up to 79% with a thermal conductivity of 0.05 W/m·K, minimizing heat transfer.
- Humidity Control: Highly breathable (Class I), prevents condensation and minimizes mold and mildew growth.
- Acoustic Properties: Sound absorption (αw = 0.10), dampening external noise for a quieter environment.
- Durable Finish: Offers excellent coverage, vibrant color retention, wet scrub resistance, and a washable matte finish.
- Exterior Resilience: Withstands 3000 cycles of artificial aging without cracking, peeling, or losing adhesion.
- Fire Safety: Rated M1 for fire reaction.
Why Choose Thermo-Facades Anti-Insect?
Thermo-Fachadas Adiós-Insectos is the ultimate solution for facades needing insect protection, energy efficiency, and aesthetic appeal. Its eco-friendly formula, with 100 μm microspheres and a viscosity of 60,000 cps, ensures easy application using a brush, roller, or spray gun. This paint not only repels insects naturally but also reduces maintenance and energy costs, making it ideal for homes, offices, healthcare facilities, and schools.
Application Guidelines
- Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of dust, mold, or loose paint. Treat mold with a bleach solution and apply Fungilev fungicide if needed. Use Suber-Fix primer on powdery surfaces (dry for 4-6 hours) and Thermal Putty for repairs.
- Mixing: Stir thoroughly, adding 8-15% clean water if needed for consistency.
- Application: Apply 2-3 coats with a brush, roller, or spray gun, achieving a dry film thickness of 300-500 microns. Allow 5-6 hours of drying between coats, depending on thickness and humidity.
- Consumption: 0.35 L/m², with a coverage of 5-7 m² per liter per coat.
