The SPI coating family is engineered as a sustainable system from the ground up:
Water-basedchemistry across most products (no solvents)
Low VOC— Super Therm® 67 g/L, SP Interlock® 38–58 g/L, Super Base 45 g/L
USDA approved— safe for food and agricultural environments
EPA Energy Star— multiple awards, including 2023 win for HPC® at Georgia-Pacific
LEED-compliant— supports green building credits
California Cool Roofcertified
No toxic copper leaching— Moist Metal Grip + Enamo Grip® marine system replaces copper antifouling
30-year service lifeon flagship products — fewer reapplications mean less material across decades
Super Therm® is featured in NASA Spinoff 2024 as a Hall of Fame inductee, recognizing the spin-off of NASA-developed technology into commercial use. The 2007 inaugural inductee was the spacesuit; Super Therm® joins that category.
A 20–50% reduction in building cooling load — the typical outcome from a Super Therm® application — translates directly to reduced electricity consumption, reduced peak load on the grid, and reduced CO₂ emissions. In Hawaiʻi, where roughly 70% of electricity historically came from imported fossil fuels, every kilowatt-hour saved is a meaningful carbon reduction.
| Property | Super Therm® | Conventional fiberglass |
|---|---|---|
| Form | Thin-film coating | Bulk insulation |
| Action | Blocks heat at surface | Slows heat through assembly |
| Moisture absorption | None | Significant; loses R-value when wet |
| Mold and mildew | Resists | Common substrate |
| Service life | 30+ years | 10–15 years typical before degradation |
| Disposal | Coating remains in place | Removal generates landfill waste |
The patented Rust Grip® encapsulation system is a compliant alternative to hazardous-material removal — keeping asbestos and lead waste out of landfill while delivering protection equal to or better than full abatement (when local code permits encapsulation).

Locations hub plus 5 island landing pages. These are the highest-leverage SEO pages on the site: someone searching “Maui roof coating” or “Kona heat block” needs to land on island-specific content that proves SRM Group LLC genuinely serves that island. Each page has unique content — not duplicated boilerplate — because Google penalizes near-duplicate location pages.
