Aerolon: Fluid-Applied Thermal Break Coating
Tnemec Company
09 96 00 High-Performance Coatings
Architects and engineers no longer need to modify designs or create complex workarounds to avoid condensation issues. Aerolon addresses common thermal bridging areas such as pass-through I-beams, fins, canopies, roof davits, parapets, shade louvres, and window frames.
Among the product’s key benefits, Aerolon:
- Prevents thermal bridging;
- Reduces condensation;
- Saves on labour costs;
- Is compatible with various primers;
- Meets Class A via ASTM E84, Standard Test Method for Surface Burning Characteristics of Building Materials; and can be easily applied in high-build coats.

The term ‘speech privacy’ refers to how well a conversation is overheard and understood by an unintended listener. The need to prevent sound from intruding into adjacent spaces in both closed and open-plan settings is a concern in various buildings.
Providing opportunities with fluid-applied thermal break coatings
In northern climates, architectural elements—such as cantilevered beams, concrete balconies, roof penetrations, parapets and canopies, spandrel glass, and other ornamental features often are limited due to compliance with local energy codes. Executing these design elements can create thermal bridges that extend beyond the insulation systems within the building envelope.
