“Farm Barrier” is the heat insulation paint that effectively reflects and scatters near infrared ray, which has the highest heat effect in the sunlight spectrum. As a result of global warming, the temperature in the summer season is rising from year to year. Houses are exposed to high heat, and the temperatures inside and outside of a house rise. “Farm Barrier” suppresses a rise of the surface temperature; therefore, it saves power as well as contributes to mitigate the heat island phenomenon.

Reflection and scattering

The heat reflecting pigment contained in “Farm Barrier” effectively reflects and scatters the infrared ray and restrains absorption of solar heat.

Heat radiation

As a function of the special ceramics, the heat once absorbed in the painted film is radiated.

Features of the energy-saving heat insulation paint, “Farm Barrier”

Superior heat insulation property

Exceptional heat insulation effect with color pigment (high reflectivity) and special ceramics (high heat radiation rate). Great energy saving effect for the air conditioning facilities.

Toning is possible

Toning by selecting a color is possible while the heat insulation effect is also provided. Select a favorite color or a color that matches the surrounding area.

High durability by algae control and antifungal property

The roofs and walls can be securely protected from algae and mold for a long time by applying the special compounding technique.

Exceptional antimicrobial effect (possible as an additional effect)

Superior durability to acid rain and heat deterioration due to its strong urethane bonding. In addition, it achieves glossy and luster finishing.

Glossy exterior and high durability

Because “NAD resin” is used as a base, effect from the base is kept low, and durability for re-painting is kept high.


This is the paint with improved reflection rate of light-color system (white, ivory, and gray). This is effective for concrete mixer trucks, barns, fodder tanks, exterior wall of housing, etc.

Proven data by universities using Farm Barrier Tio

The temperature distribution was measured using the infrared camera (manufactured by NEC San-ei Instruments, Ltd. TH9100ML). Before application of the heat insulation paint (July 21), the roof temperatures at the near section (Electrical and electric laboratory) and the far section (Structure and materials laboratory) were almost the same. On the other hand, after application of the heat insulation paint (July 26), the temperature of Structure and materials laboratory roof, where the heat insulation paint was applied, was apparently lowered, and the temperature reduction effect of approximately 15 to 20°C was confirmed.
