In the Past, Roofs had to be Torn off, Disposed of and Replaced when they Reached the End of their Short Life Cycle.  Studies Show that 42% of the CO2 Emissions Causing Green House Gases, Contributing to Global Warming/Climate Change are coming from the Disposal and Storage of Unwanted Waste.

All that Discarded, Stored, Decomposing Material and Added Expense has Become Unnecessary. With GLOBAL Encasement Inc RoofCoat GREEN Systems Demonstrated on the Project in the Pictures Above, Case History # 184, Highlighted the Tremendous Cost Savings by Instead of Doing a Tear Off, Disposal and Replacement, the Existing Roof was Left in Place and Coated Over with a Twenty Year GLOBAL Encasement Inc. GREEN, Solar/Heat Reflective System. This system also has Tremendous Energy Savings as well as the added Cost Conserving Advantage of no Building Downtime and No Personnel Relocation Fees.

ROOFCOAT Acrylic Roof Coatings

RoofCoat™ is a high solids acrylic topcoat. RoofCoat™ is used to preserve built-up roofing and flat roof systems. RoofCoat™ TopCoat creates a weather/waterproof durable and seamless elastomeric membrane for preserving existing roofing systems.  Application of RoofCoat™ Acrylic Roof Coating Systems replaces tear-offs/removal and disposal of existing roofing systems.  RoofCoat™ Acrylic Roof Coatings help to reduce the amount of roofing debris deposited in landfills.  With an estimated 40% of all CO₂ emissions being generated from unwanted waste disposed of in landfills application of a RoofCoat™ Acrylic Roof Coating System will help reduce CO₂ emissions while providing tremendous savings vs. removal and replacement of existing roofing systems.  RoofCoat™ Acrylic Roof Coating Systems have 83% solar reflectance which can help reduce facility cooling costs.  Help reduce the construction debris generated over the life of your building with a RoofCoat™ Acrylic Roof Coating System.  The SCAQMD (Southern California Air Quality Management Distric) has determined that a large contributor to the smog levels found in and around cities like Los Angeles are created by the use of high VOC architectural coatings.  RoofCoat™ contains zero VOC's or ODS's.  The widespread use of RoofCoat™ Acrylic Roof Coating Systems will result in cleaner air quality and reduced overall environmental impact of non-recyclable construction debris.
