Insuladd® Insulating Additive

A proprietary ceramic material that is used to create ahighly efficient radiant barrier. This ceramic paint additive is designed to mixinto ordinary paints thereby creating a radiant barrier paint!

1 Insuladd® insulating paintadditive has been making homes, businesses, warehouses, ships, etc. more energyefficient for over a decade. Homeowners and building contractors have provenInsuladd paint additive is not only highly effective in making insulating paint,it's simple to use for ay homeowner. Worldwide users of Insuladd® insulating additive such as theClimatic Test Branch of the U.S. Missile Command, Pratt & Whitney Aerospace,Hyundai, Samsung, The U.S. Navy, The U.S. Coast Guard along with 1,000's ofhomeowners have proven Insuladd's value as an insulating paint additive underthe most intense conditions.

You have probably seen a number of "Insulating paint additives" or "ceramicadditives" advertised on the internet. The sellers (they do not manufacture) ofthese products make claims to connections with NASA and speak of their many,many years of experience with ceramic and thermal technology however the lack ofavailable test data for these claims is quite evident.

Most website companies or "manufacturers" of "insulating paints" and"insulating additives" cannot even clearly explain how they work. This is inmost cases due to the simple fact that their products don't!

The Space Shuttle program brought awareness of ceramic insulating technologyto the general public. There are literally thousands of types of ceramicmicrospheres available. These microspheres are commonly used in the plasticsindustries as lightweight fillers. Many companies jumped into the paintmarketplace selling "ceramic insulating technology" by simply adding thesereadily available ceramic microspheres to ordinary house paints. Usually claimsfor great "insulating" properties are made however there is usually no test dataavailable to verify these statements!

Most sellers of "ceramic technology" make great efforts to show you neatgraphics of ceramic microspheres and to discuss "vacuums" and other seeminglyimportant "facts" without actually explaining how common house paint with offthe shelf ceramic microspheres could enhance the energy efficiency of ahome.

The facts are that off the shelf microspheres do notprovide any thermal benefits to the paint to which they have been added or tothe home to which that paint has been applied!

Insuladd® is different from the "competition because it was designed at the outset as an additive that wouldenhance the thermal reflective properties of the paints and coatings to which ithas been added. Insuladd® has beentested to prove its effectiveness and those tests are available for review onour website. (You won't see this on the others sites!)

Insuladd® adds a very high thermal reflective factor to paint as well as a very high "broad spectrum" thermalemissivity to the paint to which it has been added.

Think of Insuladd® as a mirror (invisible mirror) that reflects heat. Heat that escapes your home in winterwhen outside air temperatures are cold and that enters your home in the summerwhen outside air temperatures are hot. Thermal paints do not work in the samemanner as fiberglass and foam insulation however they accomplish the same thingwhich is the reduction or heat loss (winter) and heat gain (summer) into yourhome.

Insuladd® was actually (really!) developed via the NASA technology exchange program.
(We can prove it!)

Don't useoutdated 2003 technology; use INSULADD!

Insuladd® ceramic paint additive haswithstood the rigors of the most extreme and demanding conditions includingapplications on a U.S. Navy Arctic Research Vessel, oil storage tanks in theMiddle East, Metal shipping containers, factories and warehouses.

Just as Insuladd® insulating paintadditive has proven to withstand the elements for commercial and militaryapplications, Insuladd® has again andagain proven to be able to save homeowners as much as 40% off their normalheating and cooling costs!

Putting Insuladd® paint additiveinto your next painting project is a huge advantage to saving energy and savingyou money on utility costs.

The Insuladd®insulating paint additive has unique energy saving properties that reflect, resist, and dissipate heat. The hollow ceramic microspheres reflective qualityaffects the warming phenomenon called "Mean Radiant Temperature," where heatwaves from a source such as direct sunlight cause a person to feel warmer eventhough the actual air temperature is no different between a shady and sunnylocation. It is the molecular friction within the skin caused by the sun'sradiant energy waves which makes the body feel warmer.

INSULADD® is The Original Insulating Additive for housepaint.
Don't settle for less-demand the best!
  • Increases insulating value to all paint by making it an insulating paint.
  • It's safe and not toxic.
  • Is an insulating paint additive for roofs, walls, and ceilings.
  • A paint additive for interior and exterior use.
  • A ceramic paint additive for hot or cold climates.
  • Reduces heating and cooling demands.
  • Easily mixes with your locally available house paint to make it insulatingpaint.
  • Ideal for all residential and commercial painting applications.
  • Saves you money by reducing your heating and cooling demands.

Reducing heat gain by as much as 40 percent has been seen in the summer byusing Insuladd® paint additive. Heatloss in the winter will drop dramatically by using this ceramic paint additivemaking chilly rooms become comfortable.

For paint projects in your home, Insuladd® insulating additive is available inkits containing from one to 25 pouches. Just mix one pouch of Insuladd® to one gallon of paint purchasedfrom your neighborhood store. For those larger and commercial projects, Insuladd® ceramic paint additive is availablein "Contractor Jugs" which is the appropriate size for mixing Insuladd into fivegallon pails to make insulating paint out of your ordinary paint.

Insuladd® insulating paint additivehas proven effective and has been evaluated in virtually every house paintnormally found available in paint stores. Scientific evaluation of the paintadditive by independent labs such as the Climatic Test branch of the U.S. Armyand Geoscience Ltd. prove the performance and energy enhancements expected fromInsuladd®.
