All The Protection Under The Sun
Over the years, ultra-violet light, moisture and dirt pollution can cause severe damage to the appearance of concrete tiles. This can result in discolouration, lichen and mould growth, and an unsightly looking roof.

Restores Weathered Roofs
Dulux Acra·Tex 962 Roof Membrane is specially formulated to restore aged and weathered *concrete tiled roofs. It improves the appearance of aged roofs and protects them from water ingress, chemical attack and pollution, and significantly reduces dirt accumulation keeping your roof cleaner for longer.
*Dulux Acra·Tex is not suitable for glazed or semi-glazed terracotta tiles.

Colours That Protect And Shield From The Sun
Dulux Acra·Tex Roof Membrane is offered in a range of fashionable colours in a choice of either Conventional or Cool Roof technology. Dulux Acra·Tex Cool Roof technology is an option for most colours across the roof membrane range providing maximum solar reflectance. Previously, colour choice dictated how hot or cool the surface would be. Even the dark colours from the Dulux Acra·Tex Cool Roof range reflect more of the sun's energy, providing potential power savings and cooler living spaces.

Why Use Dulux Acra·Tex Membrane Instead of Paint?

One of the most important characteristics of a roof coating is its ability to expand and contract without breaking down or delaminating. Substrates move when heated and cooled, a process which occurs every day. If a coating does not match the movement, it will either split, crack, or separate from the substrate.

In both cases this failure will result in moisture entering the substrate below the coating and the ultimate failure of the coating. Another important characteristic of a membrane is its ability to "Breath", allowing water vapour to escape from the substrate without allowing water to penetrate the coating.

Cool Roof Cool Roof Acra·Tex Technology

Dulux Acra·Tex 962 Roof Membrane Cool Roof is a coating with a high degree of solar reflectance designed to keep your roof cooler.

With its heat resistant properties, Cool Roof assists in reducing energy consumption and will make your home cooler during hot summer days. In fact, scientific studies in the *USA have shown that a house with a similar coating used 21.9% less energy in summer than one without it. The coasting also reduced energy demand in winter by 3.99%.
