Flurospar® SR

Flurospar® SR spray applied coatings are the most environmentally responsible coatings available to the aluminum building products industry today. They are the newest members of the Fluropon® coatings product line manufactured by Valspar and trusted by the industry for more than forty years.

This new, eco-friendly product is formulated with solar reflective (SR) pigments that keep building components cooler than bare aluminum or anodized aluminum. Leading green building programs including LEED and ENERGY STAR recognize the benefits of paints with high solar reflectance values. They decrease the amount of heat absorbed by a building resulting in energy savings and they help mitigate urban heat island effect. While these programs currently focus on roof temperatures, aluminum extrusions and wall panels coated with Flurospar SR finishes will also reduce surface temperature.

Flurospar SR finishes are available in a wide variety of colors including white, black, green, blue, brown and red. Pearlescent effects are also available in the Flurospar SR Classic II formulation. See Flurospar SR Classic II product information sheet for more details.

All Flurospar paint coatings have the same long life characteristics as the original formulation and meet or exceed AAMA 2605 specification requirements. These finishes are full strength 70% PVDF fluoropolymer based resin, two-coat systems that provide maximum protection against chalk and fade.

Additional environmental advantages of Flurospar coatings: Improved coverage ratio decreases the amount of energy used to apply finish. Improved mar resistance. Minimal need for touch-up or repainting. No harmful off-gases from installed building components. No cadmium or lead based pigments. Aluminum coated with Valspar extrusion finishes is 100% recyclable. Approximately 1/3 of the aluminum used in the US comes from recycled material.
