Industrial Roof Refurbishment

Protecting Critical Smelter Operations
Problem
What We Did
The Outcome

 

ThermaGuard HRC was selected to help protect smelter operations in South Australia, where roof performance was critical to maintaining a safe working environment.

Water leakage onto molten metal created a significant operational and occupational health and safety risk, with the potential for dangerous steam snap and spit incidents.

 

Without disrupting normal operations, the existing roof was cleaned, repaired, sealed and coated with the ThermaGuard HRC system to help restore roof integrity and long-term protection.

 

✓ Reduced operational risk.

✓ Improved roof performance.

✓ Restored confidence in the roofing asset.

✓ Delivered on the project objectives for the Roxby Downs team.

Commercial Roof Refurbishment

Improving Employee Safety and Comfort
Problem
What We Did
The Outcome

 

ThermaGuard HRC was selected to help improve the safety and comfort of staff at the South West Rocks Water Treatment Plant in New South Wales.

Maintaining low internal temperatures was important due to the chemicals used in the water treatment process, which perform best under controlled conditions. Reducing heat within the facility was also important for improving the working environment and comfort of staff.

 

Without disrupting normal operations, the existing roof was cleaned and coated with the ThermaGuard HRC system. The application was designed to help reduce roof heat transfer, support lower internal temperatures and contribute to a safer and more comfortable working environment for employees.

 

✓ Helped reduce heat transfer through the roof.

✓ Improved employee comfort and workplace conditions.

✓ Lower internal temperatures helped reduce the hazards associated with water treatment chemicals.

✓ Contributed to a safer operating environment.

✓ Maintained normal plant operations during the project.

✓ Protected and extended the life of the existing roof.

Residential Roof Refurbishment

Reducing Energy Costs and Improving Home Comfort
Problem
What We Did
The Outcome

 

ThermaGuard HRC was selected to assist a family in Birkdale, Queensland, reduce household energy costs while improving the comfort and long-term protection of their home.

The family wanted to reduce the amount of heat entering the home during Queensland's hot summers, helping to lower electricity consumption for cooling while improving comfort for the occupants and reducing ongoing roof maintenance.

 

The existing roof was cleaned, prepared and coated with the ThermaGuard HRC system. The application was designed to help reduce roof heat transfer, lower the demand on mechanical cooling and provide long-term weather protection for the existing roof.

 
✓ Helped reduce household electricity costs for cooling.

✓ Reduced heat transfer through the roof.

✓ Improved comfort for the home's occupants.

✓ Reduced reliance on mechanical cooling during hot weather.

✓ Helped minimise ongoing roof maintenance and repairs.

✓ Extended the service life of the existing roof.

✓ Improved the appearance and long-term protection of the home.
