Insulation Coating Technology: Proven, Tested, and the Only One Backed by NASA, FEO and ASTM
For over three decades, one insulation coating has redefined thermal protection—Super Therm®. Developed in collaboration with NASA by ceramic researcher J.E. Pritchett between 1989 and 1995, Super Therm® was the first true insulation coating designed to block solar radiation waves—the very waves that heat up the earth and every structure on it.
Unlike traditional insulation, Super Therm® does not rely on R-values because it doesn’t work by absorbing and slowly releasing heat. Instead, it stops heat before it enters, making it the most effective heat-blocking solution on the market.
Why Traditional Insulation is Stuck in the Past
Most insulation materials are judged by their R-value, a measurement that only accounts for how long a material takes to absorb heat before it becomes fully loaded (heat flux). What does that mean?
✔ R-value is only tested at one temperature—23.9°C—for the entire world’s climate conditions.
✔ R19 insulation requires a full 6.25 inches (155 mm) of material to be effective. If compressed, the R-value decreases.
✔ Once fully loaded with heat, traditional insulation allows a steady flow of heat to the cooler interior.
This approach does not stop heat from entering a structure—it simply delays it. Once the material reaches heat flux, it has no resistance left, and heat transfers straight through.
Super Therm® is different. It doesn’t absorb heat at all. It blocks it.
Super Therm®: The Science of Heat Block Insulation
Unlike single-particle solutions that rely on thickness, Super Therm® is a multi-ceramic heat block coating that stops heat before it enters.
✔ Tested using ASTM standards at 25°C, 50°C, 75°C, and 100°C—covering every climate condition in the world.
✔ Applied at just 250 microns—a credit card’s thickness.
✔ Reduces heat conduction from 367.2 BTUs to just 4 BTUs—at every tested temperature.
✔ Does not absorb moisture, compact, or degrade over time.
✔ Proven by DOE, ASTM, U.S. Military, and used on over 10.2 million sq. meters in Japan alone.
With Super Therm®, no added thickness is required, no matter how high the ambient temperature rises. Why? Because its four-ceramic formula blocks the three radiation heat waves (UV, visual, infrared) before they can load onto the surface.
No heat load means no need for extra insulation.
The Industry’s Best-Kept Secret: Why Haven’t You Heard of Super Therm®?
The answer is simple: Building codes only recognize R-values, limiting awareness of superior technology like Super Therm®.
✔ R-value got into the code books first, creating a monopoly on insulation standards.
✔ Super Therm® isn’t an R-value material—it eliminates heat load entirely, so the test doesn’t apply.
✔ Thicker insulation coatings still rely on R-value principles, requiring more material as ambient temperatures rise.
That’s why most insulation solutions follow the same outdated model—because it keeps the competition out.
Super Therm®: The Only Thin-Coat Insulation Proven by NASA, DOE & ASTM
For over 35 years, Super Therm® has been used on roofs, tanks, pipes, and buildings worldwide, consistently delivering unmatched energy savings and thermal protection.
✔ Proven by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) through its Weatherization Assistance Program.
✔ Independently tested in three U.S. geographic locations—Florida, Denver, and LaPorte, Texas—showing consistent performance.
✔ Trusted by NASA, SpaceX, and industries worldwide for its longevity and stable performance year after year.
The Future of Insulation is Here—And It’s Super Therm®
The insulation industry has relied on outdated standards for too long. Super Therm® is the only thin-coat insulation coating in the world backed by NASA, DOE, and ASTM.
✔ No thick layers.
✔ No heat absorption.
✔ No outdated R-value limitations.
Just proven, heat-blocking performance that works anywhere on the planet.
It’s time to think beyond R-value. Super Therm® is the next generation of insulation, and it’s already here.
