Valspar will feature its recently released WeatherXL Crinkle Finish coating, in addition to WeatherXL, at the 2015 Frame Building Expo. WeatherXL Crinkle Finish delivers the same durability as WeatherXL, but offers a unique textured appearance providing visual depth to enhance a flat panel’s facade. The tested silicone polyester resin of WeatherXL and WeatherXL Crinkle Finish delivers maximum hardness for superior performance against chalking, fading and scratching. In addition, the coating is available in a wide variety of colors including Solar Reflective (SR) formulations that feature enhanced solar reflectance and thermal emittance properties, which are key factors to regulating a building’s exterior temperature and consequently, the energy needed to cool the interior. Valspar’s WeatherXL Solar Reflective coatings meet Energy Star and LEED qualifications and are proven to help reduce urban heat island effects and decrease customers’ energy bills. “We’re excited to showcase our WeatherXL and WeatherXL Crinkle Finish coatings at the 2015 Frame Building Expo and discuss with our customers how Solar Reflective formulations can help their business save money while remaining aligned with their green agenda,” said Jeff Alexander, VP of Sales for Valspar. “After vigorous testing, we’re proud to offer our customers a product that has the highest solar reflective capabilities on the market and can save them up to 40 percent in energy costs.” Valspar will feature WeatherXL and WeatherXL Crinkle Finish at the 2015 Frame Building Expo, February 18-20 in Louisville, Kentucky, at booth number 424 at the Kentucky International Convention Center.
