LO/MIT Interior Radiation Control Coating Systems (IRCCS) are paints formulated to reduce building interior temperatures. They can be used in a wide variety of structures, from office buildings and warehouses, to factories, ice rinks and other arenas, pole barns, garages, storage buildings, tents and more. LO/MIT is a silver-colored, non-thickness dependent, low emissivity radiant barrier paint, which may be used in almost any application where infrared (heat) reflectivity or diffuse light reflectivity is required.
Lower utility costs, increase comfort and lighting levels, improve output and lessen heat related health costs for livestock and poultry in agricultural applications by applying LO/MIT to the roof deck, rafters and un-insulated sidewalls. For all rooftop applications, please see Roofing. Because of their low thermal emissivity and high reflectivity characteristics, LO/MIT can reduce unwanted summer radiant heat gain in buildings and structures.
