LANXESS Microbial Solutions to Protect Your Roof Coating

A roof is constantly exposed to the environment, making it prone to microbial contamination, which can impact the aesthetic and integrity of your product. Microbial contamination also decreases the life of your building materials, both in storage and in use. These microbial issues arise due to the presence of moisture, fluctuating temperatures, and organic materials that serve as nutrient sources for microorganisms. Without effective protection, such contaminants can accelerate degradation processes, leading to costly repairs and replacements.

Understanding the importance of preserving not only the appearance but also the functionality of your roof coating, LANXESS offers a broad, versatile range of preservatives that can control bacterial growth in the wet state for in-can preservation and dry film protection against mold and algal growth. These advanced formulations are particularly designed to combat microbial attacks that threaten the longevity and durability of building materials. 

The LANXESS team at ChemPoint can assist you in finding the right microbial control solutions that provide the protection you need for your roof coating formulations.
