That's why RAW Paints' products are good for environment and health!
Zero TIO2
The formula of RAW Paints has been renewed! In our products we have an alternative to titanium dioxide, the white pigment in paint that provides the coverage.
From October 2021, all paint products in Europe will have to label their white paint with a warning label for titanium dioxide. Earlier this year, the European Commission ruled in a regulation that exposure to titanium dioxide could be so harmful to health that these products should be labelled with the warning: ‘can cause cancer.
FIGHTING HEAT STRESS
Our summers get warmer every year. As a result, black roofs warm up and hold heat for a longer time overnight. This has consequences for the indoor climate as well as so-called urban heat – as soon as the sun goes down, roofs can emit their heat, keeping the surrounding area warm for a long time.
Air conditioners that suck air on the roof should work less a white roof to cool the sucked air. To give an idea: an air conditioning uses 3 times as much energy as heating. So you can save a lot of energy with this.
Painting black roofs white is the answer! Our paint is absobed by the bitumen making it resistant to puddles.
It also extends the life of the bitumen; black roofs heat up to at least 80 degrees Celsius; a white roof heats up to 40 degrees Celsius.
Solar panels and a white roof go well together. A white roof reflects the sunlight, significantly increasing the efficiency of the solar panels
TNO TEST
Raw Paints’ formula was tested by TNO/TUV Rheinland in September 2016.
Adhesion
UV resistance
ADHESION ON DAMP SURFACES
Raw Paints products have the property of suturing well on moist surfaces. RAW Paints paints, making peeling not possible.
The competition can guarantee application on a surface up to 6% of humidity in the stone for use on exterior facades, RAW Paints with RWP100 gives a guarantee of up to 10% and with RWP028 up to 15%.
Many people are unaware of the (high) humidity level in the stone of their home. The painter can perform this measurement, so that it becomes clear which paints can be used best.
ZERO VOC
CO2 REDUCTION
- Due to its excellent adhesion, painting with RAW Paints products for a longer period without maintenance
- The products are solvent-free, which means that no emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOC) take place indoors (read: a healthy interior)
- No unnecessary water is transported in paint; RAW Paints products are supplied in powder form. You only add water at the time of painting
