SHIPPING CONTAINER BENEFITS WITH SUPER THERM®
Super Therm® weather resistive barrier, solves many of the challenges facing
traditional house wrap and building paper. A fully-adhered system is the best
insurance against water and air intrusion. Super Therm® is a fluid-applied,
seamless protection for moisture sensitive structures in the event of a breach
in exterior wall coverings. Super Therm® protects against ingress of incidental
water such as that caused by severe weather, vapour or condensation (shipping
container condensation), into the building or facility.
Class A fire resistance for all walls or roofing it covers. ASTM E-84 is “0”
flame spread and “0” smoke.
Sound reduction through walls or roofing where Super Therm® is applied. ASTM E90
“Standard Method for Laboratory measurement of Airborne Sound Transmission Loss
of building Partitions”, and ASTM E413 “Standard Classification for
Determination of sound Transmission Class”. Sound Transmission Coefficient up to
50%.
Water Barrier protection to a 88km/ph (55mph) wind driven rain. ASTM D 6904
Resistance to Wind Driven Rain for Exterior Coatings. ASTM D7088, Resistance to
hydrostatic Pressure for Coatings.
Mould/Mildew Resistance. ASTM D3273-82T tested for severe mould environment –
temperature 90°F (32°C) and RH of 95%-98% for 5 1/2 weeks. Rated 9 out of 10.
Solar heat load blocking. In the field of heat protection, the standard “R”
(resistance) value is a measurement of how fast the heat will conduct or travel
through traditional materials. Super Therm® ceramic solar heat block coating
blocks 96.1% of total solar heat and 99.5% of infra red heat therefore does not
utilise the R value as there is no resistance.
SUPER THERM® COVERS BROOKLYN, NY SHIPPING CONTAINERS
A couple in Brooklyn build their dream home from shipping containers. Shipping
containers are commonly seen carry goods all over the world, but one couple in
New York calls them ‘home.’ Michele Bertomen and David Boyle have built their
home after purchasing a small plot of land in the trendy Brooklyn neighbourhood
of Williamsburg.
Super Therm® ceramic heat block coating was used on the interior of the home,
and concrete radiant floors help to heat. Read the Article >
VODAFONE MOBILE PHONE CONTAINERS, TURKEY
For transmitting the reception signal for mobile phones in Turkey, an
air-conditioned container with electronic equipment is used. The problem is that
the containers can overheat with extreme outside temperatures (30°C+) with the
result that the equipment will malfunction or even break down.
One of the parameters is that the container had to have a constant inside
temperature of 24°C that could often not be reached with the air conditioner
that was used.
The problem is that there are significant electricity costs for cooling the
container to the right, constant temperature of 23°C. The containers are 2 x 2 x
3 meters, which are 24m2 for the entire container, bottom excluded.
Treat the container with Super Therm® on the outside to reflect the direct
sunlight, so that the air-conditioner can reach the inside temperature of 23°C
more easily and that eventually energy reduction will occur.
CONCLUSIONS: INSIDE TEMPERATURE OF 23°C WAS REACHED. AN AVERAGE ENERGY REDUCTION
OF OVER 50% WAS ACHIEVED. SEE THE REPORT >

SUPER THERM® ON SHIPPING CONTAINER HOME IN HOUSTON, TEXAS

Insulation and structure for both the roof and flooring comes from SIPs
(structural insulated panels). Meanwhile the exterior and undersides of all the
containers is coated in a thin ceramic coating called Super Therm® – which is
amazingly non-toxic, has received Cradle to Cradle certification!
Besides the amazing heat block properties of the home, there is natural daylight
streaming in from clerestory windows and a large glass facade on the east of the
house. Interior materials were recycled and/or non-toxic, paints and finishes
are low-VOC, efficient HVAC systems, super tight construction with energy
recovery ventilation, porous paving and much more. Additionally, during
construction, waste was kept to a minimum and recycled whenever possible, so at
the end construction, there were only 12 contractor bags of trash. Read more >
ORIGIN ENERGY SHIPPING CONTAINERS
“We use a shipping container to store our CO2 cylinders. The air conditioners we
had installed were unable to cope with the summer heat, creating a significant
safety risk. Once Super Therm® was applied to the exterior of the container, the
temperature reduce significantly and the air conditioning units were able to
cycle down”.
Christian Crau – Operations Manager, Origin Energy, Adelaide
TAMPA BAY – BUILDING WITH STEEL SHIPPING CONTAINERS AND SUPER THERM®
Tampa Armature Works uses Super Therm® ceramic solar heat block coating, which
is sprayed on both sides of the remaining container walls to prepare the house
for heating and cooling loads. Super Therm® is a high-performance, four-part
ceramic coating that adheres to the steel surface of the shipping containers.
“It really worked,” says Shannon Locklair, project superintendent for the North
Charleston house. “We had an open house one day when it was 85 or 90 degrees F
out and the air was at least 10 to 20 degrees F cooler inside. This was before
we had even installed the windows.”
“The true key to heat protection is preventing heat load. Super Therm® is a 21st
century ceramic solar heat block coating. The concept is simple: Why slow the
transfer of heat into a building when you can just prevent that heat from ever
loading onto the building in the first place? If heat is kept off the structure
to begin with, that fiberglass insulation becomes more efficient. It’s a change
in the way we think about protecting our homes against energy lost “Emissivity
is 21st century.”
Consumers should be careful to distinguish between purely reflective coatings
and true solar heat block coatings. Reflective coatings only perform when clean
and will not block all forms of heat, but a coating with heat blocking and
reflective qualities will block more than one form of heat.” Super Therm® uses
four ceramic compounds to block short-wave radiation, IR, and to block the
conductivity of heat through the surface,” claims Pritchett. “It’s not just a
reflective coating.” > Read the full article.
HEPBURN SPRINGS, VICTORIA CONTAINER HOME “FANTASTIC ENVIRONMENTALLY“
12 shipping containers successfully converted into residential housing in
Hepburn Springs, Victoria and coated with Super Therm® tinted to Desert Tan.
Madeleine McCristal surveys the surrounds from her shipping containers that are
protected from solar heat block and applied both external and internal.
Madeleine says “I have used Super Therm® over my entire steel building. I am
very happy with its performance in regard to keeping the complex cool.”

DRYDOCKS WORLD (DUBAI) SUPER THERM® CONTAINER TEST RESULTS
In winter 2011 a test was set up at the DryDocks World in Dubai. Two shipping
containers were tested in real world environments for 48 hours. The surfaces
were not cleaned when tested. See the Case Study pdf.
The study showed the Super Therm® container was on average 5°C cooler inside
than the container without Super Therm® See the test >
SUMMER CONTAINER RESIDENCE IN ITALY
Sardinia has a typical mediterranean climate. During the year there are
approximately 300 days of sunshine, the average temperature is between 11 to
17°C (52° to 63°F), but in summer the extreme temperature gets up to 36°C
(97°F), effectively a desert environment.
Two of the 3 corrugated-steel exteriors of the containers were painted with
Super Therm®, a ceramic coating that protects the structure to reduce heating
and cooling loads. Super Therm® ceramic coating is a paint mixed with 4 ceramic
compounds for application via spray or roller to exterior and interior surfaces.
Ceramic coatings are measured by their emissivity – it measures both the ability
to reflect heat and the amount of heat that is loaded onto a surface.
Although they installed air conditioning, they have never used it thanks to the
Super Therm® ceramic heat block coating, if anything, the paint works almost too
well, making the containers feel almost like refrigerators at night!
They bought 3 containers – 2 of them they painted with Super Therm®, they
finished the paint and could not buy it on this island, so they used normal
paint for the third container. The exposure to wind and sun has been the same
for all three, all three had the same amount of doors for ventilation, but the
‘normal’ one which we used as bathroom, has been terribly hot by day and by
night. The clients said this research might be too spontaneous and empirical,
but this was what they have experienced so far. Read More >

Super Therm® works because it blocks the solar heat by reflecting the sunlight
and blocking the infrared heat. Since light cannot get in contact with the
walls, the walls cannot heat up, which in turn keeps the air inside from heating
up during the day. The air inside stays as cool as it is in the surrounding
(windy) environment. Since Super Therm® is not like traditional insulation that
traps the heat it can work in reverse. The air at night is cooler as it is a
desert environment. So it keeps the walls from heating up during the day and by
painting the internal walls with Super Therm® keeps the heat generated
internally inside the container at night to protect against dropping
temperatures.
REDONDO BEACH SHIPPING CONTAINER HOUSE
Redondo Beach Shipping Container House
Eight Intermodal Steel Building Units (containers) were used to add square
footage to this $1.6 m home. All containers are coated with Super Therm® on the
interior and exterior of the walls, ceilings and floors.
The Redondo Beach container home is owned by Sven and Anna Pirkl. “They not only
wanted a residence made out of containers but they were creative and bold enough
to push the envelope with me,” notes DeMaria. “It was a match made in heaven,”
concurs Sven Pirkl, who along with his wife, an artist, envisioned a modern,
loft-style house that was both eco-friendly and budget-minded.” Super Therm®
ceramic heat block coating coating helps protect the container from the heat and
preserve heat inside in winter.

SUPER THERM® EL SALVADOR ‘MAGIC PAINT’
In El Salvador, Super Therm® is now known as “pintura mágica”. (Magic Paint).
There are approximately 250 containers in a local housing project.
The project is a modular built accommodation using used shipping containers.
With urgent need for accommodation, containers allowed the rapid deployment of a
new facility, and a relatively low cost, and would actually create great quality
to what is currently available in standard constructed buildings.
They can build and deploy these just about anywhere in the country with the use
of a well water, solar power lighting and other technologies to make them
infrastructure independent.
Enter Super Therm®. The distributor coated a container with Super Therm® and
added also an attic ventilation fan to keep air circulating inside.
There was no need to coat inside the unit since the primary element is sun’s
radiation and high outside ambient temperatures. On the day of the presentation,
a thermometer places outside the container, on the container wall, in the sun,
registered 51°C (125°F) while inside the container the temperature remained at
shaded ambient of 30°C (87°F). It truly amazed all who experienced it!
THE TEMPERATURE WAS REDUCED FROM 48°C TO 30°C INSIDE THE CONTAINER ON A 51°C
DAY.
The picture shows the local Minister noting the difference between the
temperature on the surface of the painted logo, and the surface of the Super
Therm®; of which there was a marked and noticeable difference. They had a
standard non-coated container on site as well, and it was so hot you could not
even hold your hand on the surface and inside temperatures ranged into the 48°C
(120°F) range.

On August 23rd & 24th, 2006 a test was conducted in LaPorte, Texas in accordance
with the Florida Energy Conservation Assistance Programs Designation:
ECAP-CUL-1-03 Method for Comparing Utility Loads in Structures and Buildings.
The objective of this analysis is to determine the impact of the “As Built
Conditions and As Installed Components / Equipment” on the energy producing
loads on occupied residential, commercial, government building and other
structures. The focus of this procedure is to provide a comparison to known
standards for all parties interested in using alternative and conventional
conservation products and devices to displaced energy loads. This report
reflects the performance characteristics of Super Therm®, as applied to the
structures external surfaces, as a possible passive Energy Conservation Measure
(ECM) to reduce internal Energy Loads and reduce the Heat Island Effects caused
by exposed surfaces in urban areas.
Our data indicated that at the time of this survey the test specimen container
inside surface conduction related energy loads were reduced approximately 46 to
52% by applying Super Therm® as an Energy Conservation Measure (ECM) to outside
surfaces.
Average site weather conditions during the analysis period were as follows:
* High Temperature 36°C (97°F).
* Low Temperature 23°C (74°F)

AFFORDABLE SHIPPING CONTAINER CORROSION PROTECTION
Shipping containers are typically made of steel, which is highly susceptible to
corrosion. Firstly the structure of the container is jeopardised and also the
lifespan of the container’s use is limited. Rust Grip® is the perfect solution
before you consider Super Therm® on your container if you want to truly protect
the surface for more than 20 years. Overall, it’s important to take measures to
prevent and treat corrosion on shipping containers to ensure their longevity,
safety and aesthetic appeal.
Before Rust Grip® is applied. Poor surface quality, corrosion and at risk of
corrosion holes in future.
After Rust Grip® was applied. Use of mesh as part of the affordable protection
rolled in with Rust Grip®.
RECOMMENDED COATING SYSTEM FOR SHIPPING CONTAINERS
The SPI Coating System applied to the shipping containers consists of the
following: After thorough pressure clean and drying, Super Therm® is applied
directly to the exterior walls and roof of the container, and HSC® Coating
(recommended) and Super Therm® applied directly to the interior walls and
ceiling of the container.
In the real world environment with factors of condensation, air infiltration,
moisture absorption, and thermal bridges, the SPI Coating System provides a true
heat load management benefit for the shipping containers in cool to hot
environments.
The SPI Coating System provides solar heat block protection against radiation
heat transfer and conductive heat transfer, blocks the absorption of moisture,
air infiltration, condensation, and mould and mildew, and is a fire resistant
coating with zero flame spread and zero smoke.
NEOtech Coatings Australia are pleased to be a part of and to support your
efforts to develop energy efficient and affordable structural systems for use in
home and commercial construction using shipping containers.
* Rust Grip® – Can applied directly over rusted metal surfaces or existing
paint, with no sandblasting required. As a three-coats-in-one system, Rust
Grip® acts as a primer, intermediate, and topcoat that strengthens to 6780
psi (473 bar) when fully cured. (Almost twice as hard as concrete – 3500 psi
by comparison). With a 15,000 hour salt spray test rating, Rust Grip® is one
of the most effective anti-rust/anti-corrosion coatings you can use on
shipping containers. Especially in salt air, marine, and coastal
environments.
* Enamo Grip® – A high performance, two-part architectural grade polyurethane
enamel top coat that is an excellent choice for shipping containers / conex
boxes when a high quality architectural grade finish is needed. It has
excellent gloss retention and is highly resistant to UV, scuffing, and
chalking . Enamo Grip is self leveling and can be tinted to any colour.
* Super Therm® – Our heat reflective ceramic coating can be used for a wide
range of projects.
CONTAINER CONDENSATION CONTROL
Condensation or Container Rain / Photo: iContainerHome.com
Condensation on a container roof and walls is due to the fact the underside of
the roof’s substrate becomes colder than the opposite surface. If SUPER THERM®
Ceramic Solar Heat Block Coating is applied on top of a container or verandah,
facing the sun and blocking any heat load into the metal this solves one part of
the challenge.
The other part is also using SUPER THERM® or HSC on the underside to stabilise
ambient temperatures on the inside of the substrate as well.
In airflow environments or locations where the underside remains near ambient
the better the position to control condensation. When the warm air hits the
substrate and sets, it cools and when it cools, it cannot hold the moisture and
it shows as condensation on the side of the warm air.
As warm air cools, it drops out it’s moisture. Because the heat has transferred
through the substrate it presents as moisture on the cool side. Heat is drawn to
cool.
In all situations, if there is a 5 degree difference between ambient and a
surface with the surface being cooler, you will have condensation.
So, it is a situation where you check the temperatures of ambient and the
surface to see if you have a problem with condensation.
Then if the difference between the ambient and the surface is wide you have to
start using a product like Hot Pipe Coating or Hot Surface Coating to help
control the condensation because you need thickness to keep the ambient
(hot/humid) temp away from the surface temp of the unit, roof or wall.
When you get over a 20 degree difference between the interior and exterior of a
wall, you may need some thickness of insulation to prevent condensation like
HSC.
The goal is to block the warm air from setting on the surface of anything cool,
SUPER THERM® helps to throw off the radiation during the day by using emissivity
to release the warmth off the surface and heat load. It also slows down the
escape of heat during the night. Application on the opposite surface wth SUPER
THERM® prevents the substrate being extremely cool which therefore prevents the
large temperature differences that convert into moisture and condensation.
SUPER THERM® SANDWICHES THE METAL TO KEEP THE SHEET AMBIENT AND ALSO PROVIDES
FUTURE PROOFING WITH TOUGH PROTECTION.
