Reduce heat buildup while maintaining long-lasting color.
Infrared reflective coatings, also known as cool coatings, are engineered to reflect near-infrared (NIR) radiation from sunlight, helping lower surface temperatures and improve energy efficiency. Selecting pigments with high NIR reflectance is essential for achieving both thermal performance and long-term durability.
Fineland Chem supplies high-quality inorganic pigments suitable for infrared reflective coating systems used in construction, transportation, industrial equipment, and infrastructure.

Visible color represents only a small portion of solar energy. Nearly half of the sun’s energy lies within the near-infrared spectrum.
Conventional dark pigments absorb infrared radiation and significantly increase surface temperatures. Infrared reflective pigments are specifically designed to reflect NIR wavelengths while maintaining the desired visible appearance.
Benefits include:
✔ Lower surface temperatures
✔ Reduced cooling energy consumption
✔ Improved coating durability
✔ Enhanced UV and weather resistance
✔ Longer service life for coated substrates
✔ Better thermal comfort for buildings and equipment
Roof coatings formulated with infrared reflective pigments can significantly reduce rooftop temperatures, lowering cooling loads and extending roof service life.
Suitable for:
Architectural coatings using IR reflective pigments help minimize heat absorption while maintaining attractive exterior colors.
Applications include:
Large industrial equipment exposed to direct sunlight benefits from lower operating temperatures and improved coating durability.
Examples include:
Infrared reflective coatings are increasingly used on transportation equipment to improve thermal comfort and reduce heat buildup.
Applications include:
We understand that infrared reflective coating manufacturers require pigments that deliver more than color. Thermal performance, durability, and production consistency are equally important.
Fineland Chem offers:
Whether you are developing cool roof coatings, industrial protective coatings, or energy-efficient architectural paints, we can recommend suitable inorganic pigment solutions for your formulation.
Mixed metal oxide pigments, chromium oxide green pigments, and selected inorganic pigments are widely used because they combine excellent NIR reflectance with outstanding weather resistance and thermal stability.
