What is ElaProof Cool Roof?
ElaProof Cool Roof is a white, water-based, single-component roof coating for professional exterior roof surfaces. It is designed for projects where a bright, reflective finish forms part of the roof's protection and final appearance.
The white surface reflects solar radiation and helps reduce heat absorption in the roof build-up. ElaProof Cool Roof has been tested with a Solar Reflectance of 0.823, Thermal Emittance of 0.92 and an Initial SRI value of 104. These values are also stated in the product EPD.
Suitability must always be assessed based on the roof substrate, condition, slope, exposure and project requirements. Surface preparation, film thickness and the required system build-up should be established before application.
Product highlights
Areas of application
ElaProof Cool Roof can be used on suitable roof surfaces where a bright, reflective and protective coating is required as part of the roof treatment.
The product is especially relevant for projects where solar exposure, surface temperature and roof colour form part of the assessment.
Typical applications include:
- Professional roof surfaces
- Larger continuous roof areas
- Roof renovation and surface treatment
- Roofs where a white, reflective finish is required
- Roof surfaces with solar panels or high solar exposure
- Projects where heat absorption in the roof surface is an important factor
The substrate must be stable, clean and suitable for the selected system build-up. The roof condition, slope, exposure, surface preparation and required film thickness must be assessed according to the project.

How to use the product
ElaProof Cool Roof is applied as a white, reflective roof coating on suitable exterior roof surfaces. It can be used as part of a professional coating system where the aim is to protect the roof and create a bright, reflective finish.
A typical workflow includes:
- Inspect and assess the roof surface
- Clean and remove dirt, dust, algae and loose material
- Repair damage, cracks or weak areas where required
- Apply primer or other surface preparation where needed
- Apply the first coat of ElaProof Cool Roof
- Apply a second coat where required by the system specification
- Check coverage, film thickness and consistency of the finish
Application notes
ElaProof Cool Roof must be used on suitable roof surfaces and under conditions that comply with the product's technical requirements.
Surface preparation, primer, film thickness and number of coats depend on the substrate, roof condition, slope, exposure and project requirements. Cracks, joints, penetrations and other critical details may require separate treatment or reinforcement.
Always consult the technical data sheet and installation instructions before use.

We recommend assessing whether a primer is required as part of the surface preparation before applying an ElaProof coating. On porous substrates, ElaProof Primer is used to improve adhesion and help seal pores in the surface.
