Super Therm® is a water-borne, ceramic-based thermal-insulation coating, developed with NASA over six years, that blocks 99.5% of heat load by addressing all three forms of heat transfer, radiation, conduction, and convection. Unlike conventional insulation that only slows heat as it passes through, Super Therm® blocks solar energy at the surface so it never enters.
Super Therm® uses four engineered ceramic compounds, each targeting a different part of the solar spectrum:
The ceramics are ground to microscopic spheres, producing a smooth finish that looks more like paint than insulation – but functions completely differently.

peak demand cut 86% (3,764 → 519 kW in May); 13-month payback. Subsequently specified for a new 700,000 sq ft facility in Malaysia.
coated NGL spherical tanks ran ~15°C cooler than uncoated tanks (35.1°C vs. 50.9°C in 32°C ambient), reducing flaring from internal pressure.
uninsulated metal building coated with Super Therm® held an 85°F interior through 111–113°F desert heat with AC off, with 60 people inside and doors open.
all 39 tanks (30,000 KL) at the Hokko Terminal coated; cooling efficiency improved 20%, VOC emissions reduced significantly. The first tank, coated in 1996, was still performing in 2009 with only a topcoat refresh.
367.20 BTU conducted through bare metal plate → 3.99 BTU with one coat of Super Therm® at 7–8 mils (99% reduction).
39% utility-bill reduction with a 2.2-year payback.
96% total heat block confirmed
99% IR block; 92% total solar reduction.
Find answers to common questions about our services, processes, and how we work with clients across various industries.
No. Super Therm® is not conductive insulation and is not rated by R-value. It is rated on BTU heat block — 99.5% — and works by blocking radiant solar heat at the surface. It must be applied on the exterior of a structure to do its job.
260°C (500°F) continuous. For hotter surfaces, use HSC™ or HPC®. For active fire protection, use Omega Fire.
Yes. The structure begins cooling on application, and the coating stays effective for 30+ years with minimal deterioration.
Is there a “winter penalty”? Slight, but insignificant in Hawaiʻi. Independent reports confirm that for cool roofs in suitable climates, the cooling savings far exceed any heating penalty — and Hawaiʻi’s climate is overwhelmingly cooling-dominated.
Super Therm® is the industrial flagship: 99.5% heat-load block, 30+ year life. Sunshield® is the consumer-grade version: ~85% solar heat block, ~10-year life, lower cost. For most homes, Sunshield® is the right starting point; for commercial, industrial, and marine projects, Super Therm® is the standard.
