Reducing carbon emmissions from hard to treat properties with water-repellent, exterior masonry paint and damp resistant roof coating systems.
The UK Government has set a target of an 80% reduction in carbon emissions by 2050. Much of this will have to be met by reducing the carbon footprint of the UK’s housing stock.
It is estimated that 85% of UK’s existing housing stock will still be in use in the year 2050 so, even if we build a new generation of “green” homes, measures will still have to be taken to reduce the carbon footprint of the existing housing stock.
Due to the thermal efficiencies and insulating properties of siloxane based paint, when it is applied to external masonry, it can reduce energy bills by up to 29% and reduce up to 50% of energy losses from the home!
