Gaco Western Launches the Next Generation of High Solids Silicone Coatings

GacoFlex S2100 White is the only cleanable solvent-free 100% silicone coating in the industry to resist dirt pick-up even after years of exposure. In tests, S2100 showed 40% less dirt accumulation, 2x the whiteness retention and maintained a higher solar reflectance and thermal emittance than competitive silicone coatings. This product does not contain crystalline silica and contains 37% recycled content - the highest in the industry. In addition, the use of S2100 on a job may contribute to LEED points. Our 5-Year Brightness Warranty guarantees that properly applied S2100 will maintain its brightness and color uniformity for a period of 5 years - even over asphalt roofs.

"All of our silicone coatings offer long-term durability, but it can be a natural characteristic of conventional silicone roofs to darken and accumulate dirt over time. That is why we developed S2100. It is the first high solids silicone to resist dirt pick up and offer years of exceptional clean-ability and whiteness retention." - Chuck Skalski, VP Sales, GacoFlex Coatings.
