Poultry & Livestock
Poultry and Livestock farms in India face a major problem during summer, due to too much heat inside the sheds. Most sheds are made with tin, metal, or asbestos sheets, which easily absorb heat from the sun. This makes the inside spaces very hot and uncomfortable, and it can be harmful for animals. During peak summer days, the roof temperature of sheds can go as high as 60 to 75°C, and the inside temperature can rise to 45 to 48°C or even more. This extreme heat causes stress in animals, reduces their productivity, and can lead to death. As a result, farmers face serious losses and reduced profits.
The Problem: Heat Stress in Poultry and Livestock
Heat stress is one of the main reasons for looses in poultry farming, especially in India’s hot climate. Extreme heat inside sheds affects animals in many ways:
- Reduced feed intake and slower growth.
- Lower egg production and egg yield.
- Higher chances of death during heatwaves,
- Weak immunity and a higher risk of diseases.
- Discomfort for workers and lower efficiency.
COOLROOF® Paint Solution
COOLROOF® paint is an especially designed roof coating that helps to keep poultry and livestock sheds cooler during hot weather. This coating is directly applied on the roof surface, especially on material like tin, metal, or asbestos sheets that usually absorb a lot of heat.
This heat reflective coating works by reflecting up to 95% of the sun’s heat and sunlight, instead of letting it get absorbed into the roof. Because of this, much less heat enters the shed, and the inside temperature stays noticeably lower, even on very hot days. By reducing overall heat load from the surface, COOLROOF® paints create a more comfortable environment for animals, helping them stay healthy, active, and productive.
