What is Super Therm® Insulation Coating?
Super Therm® is an advanced scientific formulation of ceramic insulation coating stemming from developments on NASA‘s space shuttles. It contains four types of special ceramics that reflect and dissipate solar energy effectively. This heat load prevention on roofs and walls greatly reduces temperature and therefore electricity bill savings through reduced KW power use.
The 21st century science of Super Therm® Did you know a 6° reduction in the thermostat produces a 39% reduction in utility costs Con Edison, NY. Super Therm®reduces temperatures approximately 10-40% by reducing heat load and therefore less pressure on air conditioners to keep your environment cool.
Super Therm® has been thoroughly tested and proven and is used by many corporations and applied to millions of m2 around the world since it was first introduced in 1993. It has continued its long lasting proven success for over 25 years and the benefits, environmental rewards and sustainable results are comprehensive.
The basic principles of Super Therm® insulative properties are high-performance thermal reflection + low absorptive emissivity + high radiative emissivity + conductive resistance = the incredible thermal insulation of Super Therm®

Key Features and Benefits of Super Therm®
- Blocks 95% of Heat Load (blocks the absorption and transfer of heat)
- 99% of Ultra Violet Radiation (UV)
- 92% of Visual Light (Short Wave Radiation)
- 99.5% of Infra Red (Long Wave Radiation)
- Blocks Water and Moisture Penetration – certified and tested water barrier
- Safe and non-toxic
- Is Environmentally Friendly water based and Energy Star rated
- Prevents Mould and Mildew
- Blocks 68% of All Sound Waves – sound deadening
- Blocks Flame Spread and Smoke – Class “A” Fire Rating (“0” Flame Spread and Smoke – tested by NASA and Australian laboratories).
Later researches proved inevitability of blocking also infrared radiation. Therefore the fourth ceramic membrane was added. Applying knowledge from space environment, a unique ceramic insulation coating for civil usage was created – Super Therm®.
Super Therm® insulation coating manufacturers, SPI II Inc. accomplished their most important task – the coating provided not only the heat reflection like other ceramic “heat – reflecting” coatings on the market but also blocked most of the heat transfer.

Super Therm® greatly reduces the roof temperature, improves the work environment and increases the efficiency of air conditioning. In cool environments it also keeps heat inside a room in winter, so it reduces the energy consumption throughout the year.

Nissan Factory, Japan. The previous year they used 3,767 KW of electricity in May and 5,647 KW in June. After the roof was coated with Super Therm®, the May reading was 519KW of electricity used and 1,896KW in June. An average savings of over 75% and covered over 200,000 m2…more savings.

Performance Durability is Outstanding.
There are many “reflective coatings” that have an initial reflectivity of 80 to 90%, but lose reflectivity by 20% in 1 to 2 years. As a result, the temperature reduction effect is lost. Super Therm®‘s initial reflectivity is 92.2%, and it is demonstrated that the reflectivity after 12 years is 79.8% and that of after 15 years is 73%.
Even when the Super Therm® surface becomes dirty, it does not affect the room temperature reduction effect thanks to the effect of special ceramics developed by NASA. Compare Super Therm® to reflective coatings test.
Safety
Harmlessness
Super Therm® is accepted by the USDA as a non-toxic coating in terms of food sanitation, and it can be used in food factories, dairy factories, and on the interiors of stockbreeding buildings. The quality tests of water in Japan also prove its harmlessness.
Non-Toxic
Super Therm® is classified as the highest class “K” with zero off-gassing in the flammability test at NASA (Marshall Space Flight Center). Super Therm® does not emit any toxic gases in fire.
Nonflammable
The burning test by Japan Railway Rollingstock and Machinery Association for railway vehicle (8-135K) proves that Super Therm® is nonflammable. Super Therm® is classified as the highest class “A” rated having “0” flame spread on all three samples in the flammability test at NASA (Marshall Space Flight Centre)
